The Pitot probe was one of the key equipment elements of the BAe Hawk T.1, an aircraft mainly used as a training jet and light fighter for Royal Air Force pilots. The aircraft made its debut in the mid-1970s and still plays an important role today, both in pilot training and in airshows – for example, with the legendary Red Arrows team. The original Pitot probe enabled precise airspeed and pressure measurement during flight, which was crucial for the correct operation of avionics.

The Master AM-72-020 kit makes it easy to replace plastic kit parts with a durable, highly detailed brass alternative. Assembly is simple and just requires attaching the part with commonly used cyanoacrylate glue. The high manufacturing precision guarantees a perfect fit with all BAe Hawk T.1 models in 1:72 scale.
