Saudi Hawks get new aircraft

During the World Defense Show, currently running in Saudi Arabia, the Royal Saudi Air Force (RSAF) revealed the successor of the Hawk Mk65 of the 88 squadron display team Saudi Hawks on 5 February 2024.

The team will transition to Hawk T165 and those aircraft show a new colour scheme. It is expected that the team will be converted in the next season.

The Saudi Hawks will show up twice in Europe before transition, Zeltweg (Austria) and Fairford (UK). So that is your chance to get the old ones.
