My colleague Paul reviewed the new tooled Hawk back in July in this thread, the plastic for this kit is exactly the same.

The change is that in this kit decals are provided for the markings celebrating 50 years of the Red Arrows. These decals include the new tail design. It is noted the box now says that this is an officially licenced kit by the RAF, a sad indictment of the times we live in!

Decals
The new decal sheet has the markings for the 50th Anv design tail, and the serial numbers to build any aircraft from the team. As is usual for Airfix they are produced by Cartograf and look excellent. The white markings look dense enough to use over bright red paint.

Conclusion
Its a RED ARROW of course we want it. The model will look good in these markings. Highly recommended.
