Indian hawk 08-11

[miketonka]

Hi all

Just wondered if anyone could shed light on a serial for the Indian hawk that was being photographed on Alpha dispersal today. It was wearing what looked like display team markings and was complete with refueling probe.

Thanks in advance

ZJ100

Oh wow ok I wasn't expecting it to be that was hoping for something a bit more exotic but thanks any ideas why it's in those special markings?

[armra1972]

Not sure but believe it is being displayed at some trade show?

I was under the impression it was ZJ951...

That makes more sense, TonyO. Wouldn't have thought they would drag out one of the apprentices' airframes from Humberside.

Has ZJ951 flown since 2008?

ZJ951 has been re jigged as the Combat Hawk prototype.

The news item is (loosely?) based on a formal press release

Visited Aeroindia at Yelahanka AFS yesterday, and this Hawk was on the static, this time fully marked.
As per the original reply by Mark (Armra1972), this aircraft is marked as ZJ100.

Confirmed as ZJ100.
