Does anyone know the correct load-out for the Bae Hawk T.1A. I have a rocket pod, and fuel tanks... it's the Revell version (not the Red Arrows)...

If you're doing an RAF Hawk the rocket pods are a no-go; they were for export Hawks. In the RAF the usual load was nothing at all but they can carry the centreline gun pod and two underwing sidewinders or possibly one and an ACMI pod. Most of the pictures of RAF Hawks I've found show them with nothing underwing.

I thought so. I was kinda leaning towards the AIM-9Ls and the centerline gun pod, but I'd trade the rocket pods for a few good pylon sway braces and at least a pilot figure...
