The British Aerospace-owned Hawk demonstrator painted in "naval grey” as part of the current effort to interest the US Navy in the Hawk for its VTXTS requirement. British Aerospace has teamed with McDonnell Douglas to offer a modified Hawk to the US Navy and is also participating with MDD in the latter's submission of an all-new trainer design. The Alpha Jet and MB-339 are also contenders, together with numerous domestic proposals.
