Dave Fleming Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 Interesting, look forward to these - there are a few differences between the various prototype and production Hawk 200s, hope they catch them all!
David Koktavý Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 A single seated variant of that famous plane is really needed to fill a gap in my Hawks collection. As far as I know there exists only some conversion set which is quite not reachable...

Skeg Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 YES YES YES I’ve been waiting for this for a long time. Really good to see three versions, especially one of the prototypes. We all know about the Matchbox offering and the Neomega conversion seems to be non existent. I will hopefully get hold of a few of each version😀

Skeg Posted February 9, 2023 Posted February 9, 2023 I wonder if the second version pictured comes with the access ladder shown🤔
Dennis_C Posted February 9, 2023 Posted February 9, 2023 Great and quite unexpected release! Hope A&A continues the series with T-45. I think a proper T-45 being tad different to BAE Hawk was never kitted in 1/72 either? Italeri's one seems to be a repack of their Hawk with different decals.

The Italeri T-45 sprues have a lot of differences to the Italeri Hawk but no doubting they have common ancestry Sprue shots in these reviews https://www.modellversium.de/kit/artikel.php?id=4211 https://www.cybermodeler.com/hobby/kits/it/kit_it_0173.shtml Edited February 9, 2023 by matford 1 1
Dave Fleming Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 (edited) Been a while since I looked at one, but I think the Italeri T-45 is ok for the first T-45 as it left the factory, but there were a lot of changes during the development, not least the full span leading edge slats that I don't think Italeri cover.

Tomjw Posted February 20, 2023 Posted February 20, 2023 One for me to watch. I'll be buying a few of these... Cheers, Tom

Skeg Posted February 21, 2023 Posted February 21, 2023 Anyone know of a possible release date? I don’t know anything about this manufacturer so don’t know how optimistic to be.

I’ve struggled with some parts of their two seat harriers.

Hoops Posted March 8, 2023 Posted March 8, 2023 I think it's supposed to be the "McLaren scheme" not "McLauren scheme?"

Not cheap of course but not bad for this kind of kit. I'm really looking forward to this kit, I've alwaya fancied a proper Hawk 200 in 1/72 scale 1
Dave Fleming Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 (edited) The Light Aircraft Grey/Light Weatherwork grey scheme is one I've wanted to do since I first saw it in the 90s. Pre-order made! Edited March 9, 2023 by Dave Fleming 3
