RBC Hawker Sea Hawk 90mm Kit

The Hawker Sea Hawk is a British single-seat jet day-fighter of the Fleet Air Arm (FAA), the air branch of the Royal Navy (RN), built by Hawker Aircraft and its sister company, Armstrong Whitworth Aircraft. Although its design originated from earlier Hawker piston-engined fighters, the Sea Hawk became the company’s first jet aircraft.

Following acceptance in the RN, the Sea Hawk proved to be a reliable and sturdy workhorse. A considerable number were also produced for the export market and were operated from aircraft carriers in Dutch and Indian service. The last operational Sea Hawks, operated by the Indian Navy, were retired in 1983.

The RBC Hawker Sea Hawk is a moderate build kit and will create a great-looking jet that will get attention at the flying field. The RBC kit features construction of balsa, plywood, and ABS plastic to make an easy-to-build/repair kit that has great slow flying characteristics and lands slowly like a trainer.  The kit contains all parts CNC cut, including all wood to finish the kit.  A large, clear CAD drawing with instructions is also included, and with a vacuum-formed canopy. It features a large top hatch for easy access to the battery and receiver area. Instructions are on a CD and built on a frame where the parts interlock for strength.  It features removable wings for easy transportation.

Does not come with decals, landing gear, or a hardware kit.
