The RAF Red Arrows is arguably the best known aerobatic team in the world and in 2014 the team?s Hawk aircraft have a new tail fin design celebrating their 50th Display Season. Included in this gift set are larger scale models of both of the aircraft types that the team have used in those 50 seasons; the Gnat and the Hawk.

The colour scheme provided for the Gnat represents the first season in 1965 and the Hawk scheme includes the new tail fin design for 2014, thus creating models of both the very first and the most up-to-date Red Arrow aircraft. Both models fully replicate the graceful lines and the red, white and blue colours schemes of the real aircraft.
