You may be surprised how many people outside (and probably inside unfortunately) the UK would look at you in bewilderment if you shgowed them a picture of a Red Hawk.
I work in the aviation industry in the US, with a lot of former military pilots and ground crew, and in casual conversation I've been amazed at how many of them have little or no clue about air power outside the US.
You're right, I would be very surprised. But thats not the issue. it was not one of Red 1's stated aims, although it does raise an interesting point. You mean that this (gulp) paint job might not have been done to make the lads in the field feel respected, but instead, is nothing more than a tacky sales device?
Sorry, I refuse to accept that we'd be fed bull**** and tacky spin.. uh uh, absolutely no way.
