Hawk 200 questions
In article ,
says...
I'm looking for some general information about Hawk 200
vulnerabilities: I've heard it is a fairly expensive for what it can
provide
(especially when used in a training role), can anyone confirm this?
Operations and actual usage: Is it being deployed at this moment in a
combat role somewhere
or was it ever? Which conflict?
Can't imagine it being much use in the tradiional training role being a
single seater..maybe weapons training?
Malaysia and Indonesia seem to use them for light attack and COIN/CAS
with some backup point air defence role..replacing the aging A-4 and F-5.
