  1. Aircraft Knowledge Proficiency Part II

  2. Names of Aircraft • The suffixes to the names of RAF Aircraft indicate their primary role and mark of that particular aircraft. • The primary role indicates what the aircraft is primarily used for. • The mark is the particular version of that aircraft. The differences between marks of an aircraft could be anything from a different engine to a redesigned fuselage.

  3. Names of Aircraft: Role Letters AEW Airborne Early Warning B Bomber C Transport E Electronic/Flight Checking F Fighter FG Fighter Ground Attack GR Ground Attack Reconnaissance HAR Helicopter, Air Rescue HAS Helicopter, Anti-Submarine HC Helicopter, Cargo HCC Helicopter, Transport & Communications HT Helicopter, Training HU Helicopter, Utility K Tanker MR Maritime Reconnaissance R Reconnaissance PR Photographic Reconnaissance S Strike T Trainer

  4. Names of Aircraft • Therefore, the name “Hawk TMk 1A” shows: • The Hawk is used for training. • This is the 1st version of the Hawk, with a subsequent minor revision (A).
