HBB81738 - Hobbyboss - 1/48 RAF Red Arrows Hawk T Mk.1/1A 

On the modern airshow circuit, few aircraft are as instantly recognizable as the BAE Systems Hawk T Mk.1, especially in its iconic Red Arrows display team configuration. The aircraft has served with the Royal Air Force since the 1970s, not only as an advanced jet trainer but also as the platform for the world-famous RAF aerobatic team, the Red Arrows. Known for their precision formation flying and signature red smoke trails, the Hawks have become a symbol of British aviation excellence and airshow performance.

This HobbyBoss 1/48 RAF Red Arrows Hawk T Mk.1/1A (81738) is a detailed plastic model kit of the Royal Air Force’s aerobatic display aircraft. The kit accurately reproduces the sleek lines of the Hawk airframe, including its swept wings, tandem cockpit, and characteristic under-fuselage smoke system used during displays. It features a finely detailed cockpit with instrument panels and ejection seats, along with crisp panel line engraving across the airframe. The iconic Red Arrows livery is provided via a high-quality decal sheet, allowing modelers to recreate the famous formation team aircraft.
