These aren't Goshawks, but BAe Hawk 100s methinks. No navalised / Yankified
mods on these birds.
Ciao

Nice picture, but as has been pointed by others out these are RAF Hawks.

The T-45 colour scheme really shows off the attractive lines of the Hawk
family. Photogenic aircraft in the best Hawker tradition.

Agreed! But a friend of mine who was an Air Traffic Controller at RAF
Valley, affectionately likened them to 'a bunch of clockwork mice'.
