Insgesamt belief sich die Produktion auf 548 Flugzeuge. Dornier Do 28 D Skyservant • Grund hierfür war die Eskalation des Konflikts zwischen Indien und Pakistan. Sie wurden in den Jahren 1957 und 1958 geliefert. Die indischen Marineflieger setzten während des Bangladesch-Krieges vom 4. bis 10. [3] Official interest had also cooled by the expression of doubts voiced by Rolls-Royce Limited on the viability of the bifurcated jet pipes that the design used. Iljuschin Il-62 • [5][7], The Admiralty was not enthusiastic, in part due to the development of the jet-powered Supermarine Attacker aircraft. Duiker • A considerable number were also produced for the export market and were operated from aircraft carriers in Dutch and Indian service. VP401 was later converted into a further prototype, the Hawker P.1072, the principal addition being in the form of an auxiliary rocket engine; configured as such, it became the first British rocket-powered aircraft. Dezember 1960 aufgelöst. [24] Between 1957 and 1964, the Dutch Navy operated 22 aircraft. Tupolew Tu-154M, Breguet Atlantic (BR 1150 M) • "The Sea Hawk ...Epitome of Elegance. VP413 was quickly subjected to a series of deck assessment trials using a mock-up deck at Boscombe Down. Das Höhenleitwerk ist als Kreuzleitwerk ausgelegt. ", Green, William, ed. [26] The last export customer was India which ordered 24 new Sea Hawks and 12 refurbished ex-FAA Mk 6s in 1959, following up with 30 additional airframes reconstructed from West German stocks, among others. [15] After a few flights were made in 1950, the rocket engine blew up during a test and although repaired, the airframe was scrapped soon after. EuroHawk • The Sea Hawk Mk.100 is a premium rank V German jet fighter with a battle rating of 8.0 (AB/RB/SB). Bell UH-1D • Fury • Zielschleppflugzeug Rockwell OV-10B Bronco, Aladin • Transall • Lockheed T-33A • [4] The P.1040 would lead to the eventual development of the land-based swept wing Hawker Hunter fighter. Republic F-84F Thunderstreak, RF-84F Thunderflash, Beechcraft T-6 • [17], While some of the initial batch of Sea Hawks would see operational service, many of the F1s would be used for various service trials. Buccaneer • [25] The German Sea Hawks served into the mid-1960s, until replaced by the F-104 Starfighter. Green & Pollinger: Observer's Book of Aircraft 1960, S. 20. [2] In October 1945,[6] Sydney Camm, Hawker's chief designer, being satisfied with the results generated from engineering mock-ups and wind tunnel testing, authorised a production order for a prototype by the company's experimental department. The final Sea Hawk standard, FGA 6, was a fighter ground-attack variant, the same as its FB 5 predecessor, though they were new-build aircraft rather than re-engined ones. "Hawker's First Jet: Database, Hawker Sea Hawk. Sie wurden von den Flugzeugträgern Albion, Bulwark und Eagle aus zur Luftnahunterstützung der landenden britischen und französischen Bodentruppen sowie zu Angriffen auf ägyptische Flugplätze eingesetzt.[9]. Hind • Grob G 120A • Der Erstflug des schließlich aus Strahlflugzeug gebauten Prototyps erfolgte am 2. Most Sea Hawks in second line service were withdrawn by the mid-1960s. Die Flugzeuge wurden schließlich unter Umgehung des Verbots über eine italienische Exportfirma nach Indien gebracht. de Havilland DH.114 Heron • Woodcock, Andover • Nimrod • Harrier • Percival C.MK.54 Pembroke • Airbus A319 • The rate of production was substantially increased and more orders for the Sea Hawk were placed. NH Industries NH90 • Northrop T-38 • Sud-Ouest SO 1221 Djinn • [4] In light of the diminished RAF interest in the project, allegedly due to the aircraft offering insufficient advances over the jet fighters that were already in service, such as the Gloster Meteor and de Havilland Vampire, in January 1946, a naval version of the P.1040 was offered by Hawker to the Admiralty as a fleet support fighter, as the P.1046. Sea Fury • The Sea Hawk was withdrawn from Indian Navy service in 1983, being replaced by the far more capable BAE Sea Harrier. Hoopoe • Hedgehog • North American T-6 Texan • [1], The design team studied the potential adaption of the aircraft, having opted to use the Rolls-Royce Griffon-powered Fury prototype as the starting point. One Sea Hawk, WV908, remained airworthy as part of the Royal Navy Historic Flight until 2010. It was powered by … [4], Hawker elected to refine the P.1040 design as a private venture, albeit being prepared with a view for service with British military customers in mind. Der erste indische Flugzeugträger INS Vikrant wurde ab Mai 1961 mit Sea Hawks ausgestattet.[6]. Eurocopter Tiger UHT • These trials revealed the need for the wing span to be increased by 30 inches, the low-speed handling of the prototype having been found to be lacking. [1][2] The Sea Hawk also featured a nose wheel undercarriage arrangement, the first for a Hawker-built aircraft. Saunders-Roe "Skeeter" Mk. Die Hawker Sea Hawk war ein einsitziges, einstrahliges Kampfflugzeug der Zeit des Kalten Krieges aus der Produktion des britischen Flugzeugherstellers Hawker Siddeley. Bombardier Challenger 601 • Prior to this, Hawker had been committed until late 1944 to the production and further development of its piston-powered aircraft, such as the Hurricane, Tempest and Typhoon, to meet the wartime demands for these aircraft. Unlike its rival, the Supermarine Attacker, which had been the first jet aircraft to enter service with the FAA, the Sea Hawk had a tricycle undercarriage rather than a tail-wheel, making it easier to land on carriers, it was also Hawker's first aircraft to incorporate a nose-wheel undercarriage. [1] The prospective modifications also included "stretching" the fuselage and moving the cockpit to the extreme front of the fuselage in a re-contoured nose; this design received the internal designation P.1035. [4] The service was however intrigued by the long-range of the P.1040 and the promise of increased power from the Nene engine.
