Ok, I know it's a "what if" but I couldn't help myself. I just bought the Just Flight Hawk T1/A and I thought the Finnish paint job would look good as a US Navy Advanced Trainer/COIN aircraft. Just Flight did a really great job with this one. It's one of the very few aircraft I enjoy flying from inside the cockpit. Usually I'm outside.I'm waiting to get more checked out on it before I purchase TacPac. The Hawk's loadout panel is very nicely done with a wide range of munitions to select from and you can definitely feel the difference when you fly in the different configurations.
Anyway, here's my rendition of what the BAe Hawk would look like in a COIN profile with the Patuxent River Naval Air Test Center in the background.
