Hawk T1/A MSFS
This highly detailed simulation of the Hawk T1/A Advanced Trainer for Microsoft Flight Simulator has been developed by Just Flight's in-house development team after hands-on resear ch with a real-life ex-RAF and ETPS Hawk T1. The Just Flight Hawk has been modelled to an exceptional level of detail and features a variety of 8K PBR paint schemes (including the RAF and Red Arrows), realistic payloads (including AIM-9 missiles, rockets, practise bombs, 30mm Aden cannon gun pod, Red Arrows diesel/dye smoke pod) and ground equipment. Both the front and rear pilot positions are included and the aircraft features a truly 3D virtual cockpit with smoothly animated 3D instruments and fully functioning custom-coded systems and avionics. The Hawk T1 is a British-built single engine jet trainer with a two-man tandem cockpit. First flown in 1974, the Hawk has served as an advanced training aircraft for nearly 40 years. The design has proved to be highly successful, with over 900 examples of more than 10 variants sold to air forces in 18 countries, including the UK, Finland, India and Saudi Arabia. The Hawk T1 variant, first delivered to the RAF in 1976, continues to serve as an advanced jet and weapons trainer. Possibly the most well-known Hawk T1s are those flown by the world famous RAF Red Arrows display team, which has been flying the Hawk T1 since 1979. Model Accurately modelled Hawk T1 & T1A, built using extensive research materials and hands-on experience with the real aircraft Numerous external animations including storage hatch, RAT, canopy, crew ladder Animated, configurable front and rear pilots Ground equipment including chocks, access steps, pitot cover, engine intake covers and tie-downs 8K textures are used to produce the highest possible texture clarity PBR (Physically Based Rendering) materials with real-time environment reflections for superb quality and realism Detailed normal mapping for down-to-the-rivet precision of aircraft surfaces Static weaponry with the correct brackets and pylons for all weapon types: - Aden 30mm centre line gun pod - AIM 9M and CATM-9 practise missile - CBLS/BDU-33 practise bombs - Matra LRF4 rocket launcher pods Ground services support (marshaller and fuel truck) Full support for MSFS visual icing effects Optional drop tanks for longer range flights Numerous effects, including Red Arrows display smoke, engine and GTS exhaust haze and wing vortices Cockpit A truly 3D virtual cockpit featuring accurately modelled ejector seats, cockpit wear and tear and stunning texturing - every instrument is constructed fully in 3D with smooth animations Cockpit textures feature wear and tear based on reference photos taken in the real aircraft to produce an authentic environment Dimmable instrument, radio and flood lighting, with separate control circuits for each cockpit Tablet EFB for controlling various aircraft options, and checking aircraft and flight information: - 'Cold & Dark', 'Ready for Take-off' and ‘Ready for Start’ aircraft states - Persistent aircraft states, allowing you to always return to your cockpit in the same state that you last left it - Canopy, hatch and ground equipment controls - Choose between weapon panels, Red Arrows smoke controls, Gunsight /GPS/Gunsight + GPS configurations, and hide the control column for an unobstructed view of the cockpit - Configure ordnance and rear pilot/instructor - Basic autopilot controls for ease-of-use Front and rear cockpit positions fully modelled and simulated Developed using the latest MSFS standards, including intuitive and easy-to-use controls for rotary knobs, multi-position switches and levers Fully compatible with MSFS VR mode A variety of showcase camera presets (including front pilot looking aft, over front pilot's shoulder, over front pilot's ejection seat, over left and right wings) Front or rear seat pilot is visible whilst in the cockpit view (pilot being shown is toggled automatically based on whether the front or rear cockpit is selected) Custom-coded aircraft systems Electrical system with generators, busbars, inverters and AC/DC power supplies Hydraulic systems, including independent No.1 and 2 systems, accumulators and RAT operation in case of engine failure Fuel system with automatic fuel transfer, pumps and LP/HP cocks Central warning system with realistic CWP caption logic, audio/visual warnings and test functionality Flight control system with hydraulically-powered flying controls, standby flap system and realistic airbrake operation Landing gear and wheelbrake system with hydraulically-charged brake accumulators with realistic discharge rates, standby gear system and front/rear cockpit control transfer Air-conditioning and pressurisation system with temperature controls and realistic cabin pressurisation Oxygen system with realistic supply and usage rates that vary with altitude and number of flight crew Flight information and instrumentation system with Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS), modelled with accurate 'spin-up' times and simulated gyro-drift, and standby instruments with power source controls Lighting system with dimmable instrument, console and map lighting, and separate upper and lower fuselage anti-collision lighting Communication system with original AN/ARC 164 UHF radio, plus retrofitted modern RT8300 VHF radio with the ability to save and recall frequencies, fully-functional TACAN and ILS radio units for IFR navigation, and modern Mode C/S compatible military IFF transponder Engine systems with realistic Adour Mk. 151 turbofan engine operation, including gas turbine starting (GTS) system and engine starting procedures Armament system with weapons control and monitoring panels, missile control panel, sighting system and payload jettison Skymap II GPS system (based on default Aera) Realistic gunsight display with azimuth and depression controls Sounds Bringing next-gen jet noise to your simulator, the Hawk T1 features a highly-fidelity Wwise sound environment developed by SimAcoustics. Over 200 separate sound effects provide accurate audible feedback as you interact with the aircraft. High-fidelity Rolls-Royce Adour Mk.151/851 jet noise Full start-up soundtrack featuring the GTS starter Immersive distant jet sounds that enhance the fly-by experience Authentic audio for every switch, button, lever and electrical system Audible feedback as you operate the control surfaces, flaps and airbrake Dynamic airflow noise during manoeuvring Simulation of breaking the sound barrier Custom damage effects for when things don't go as planned Liveries The Hawk T1 is supplied in the following 14 paint schemes: Hawk T1 Royal Air Force early trainer livery, XX241 Hawk T1 Empire Test Pilots School livery, XX341 Hawk T1 Royal Air Force Valley, Central Flying Squadron, XX176 Hawk T1 Royal Air Force camouflage scheme, XX353 Hawk T1 Royal Air Force 4 FTS, Welsh Dragon livery, XX172 Hawk T1 Royal Air Force 92 Squadron, XX329 Hawk T1 Royal Air Force Red Arrows 2011 livery, XX260 Hawk T1 Royal Air Force Red Arrows 2014 livery, XX322 Hawk T1 Royal Air Force Red Arrows 2021 livery, XX227 Hawk T1A Royal Air Force 100 Squadron, black livery, XX331 Hawk Mk. 51 Finnish Air Force, HW-346 Hawk Mk. 53 Indonesian Air Force, LL-5320 Hawk Mk. 63 Royal Saudi Air Force, 79034 Hawk Mk. 63 Swiss Air Force, U-1252T1 Other features Realistic and accurate flight dynamics based on real world performance and handling data, and input from Hawk T1 pilots A Comprehensive PDF manual with panel guide, flight tutorial and performance data is included PSD Paint Kit included so you can create your own paint schemes, including pilot name decal texture which allows you to have your own name showing on the Red Arrows 2021 custom livery Full support for MSFS checklists (manual and automatic/co-pilot modes)
