Hawk is up for pre-order. Pre-order discount is $31.99 FOR SFM only. $39.99 for PFM. PFM will not be available day one so you can order and get it when ready or upgrade later if you want it.

Re: DCS: Hawk
It is combat capable, since it is the T.1A. 2 AIM-9's plus 30mm Aden gun pod, and two more underwing pylons for mk-151 rockets, Mk-82 and CBU-87 bombs, and UPK-23 gun pods. No worse than the F-86F and barely worse, though considerably slower than the MiG-21. Better A-A missiles though. Not like the Goshawk which is basically unarmed.
Re: DCS: Hawk
yeah, capable. I do not think it was around in Vietnam era though. mid-80's aircraft as a combat trainer before being billeted in something more capable against the current aircraft. MiG-21bis, as modeled in the game (I think) would probably eat it for lunch.

Re: DCS: Hawk
1974. The MiG-21Bis has a huge speed advantage, but in other regards it is at a disadvantage or no better. But yes if theyre both aware of each other and the 21 keeps moving fast the Hawk is probably dead. 21 dows somethi g stupid though and the Hawk could capitalize. Way better A-A missiles for sure.
