NAO report on MFTS
The ratio of 10 T-6C's and 28 Hawk T2s seems upside down.
I'd guess there has always been more JP/Tucanos than Gnats/Hawks in service?
Presumably there will be a fair few students that fly the T-6C but don't get to the Hawk (chopped or move to Multi/Helis)
With only ten AC students can't do many hours in the T-6C's - I can only imagine they will be just used as a screening program for the Hawk?
And the Hawk will be used earlier in a students training - where currently they would still have been flying Tucanos?
