RAF grounds Hawk fleet following crash

The Royal Air Force has grounded its entire Hawk fleet following a crash, according to Janes, suspending jet training operations pending an investigation into the incident. The Hawk T1 and T2 serve as the RAF's primary advanced jet trainer and are also operated by the Red Arrows aerobatic display team, meaning the grounding affects both operational training pipelines and public-facing activities. The investigation will need to determine whether the cause is systemic before flying can resume, with potential implications for RAF pilot graduation schedules.
