The McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) T-45 Goshawk is a highly modified version of the British BAE Systems Hawk land-based training jet aircraft. Manufactured by McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) and British Aerospace (now BAE Systems), the T-45 is used by the United States Navy as an aircraft carrier-capable trainer.
The T-45 Goshawk has its origins in the mid-1970s, during which time the U.S. Navy formally commenced its search for a new jet trainer aircraft to serve as a single replacement for both its T-2 Buckeye and A-4 Skyhawk trainers.During 1978, the VTXTS advanced trainer program to meet this need was formally launched by the U.S. Navy. An Anglo-American team, comprising British aviation manufacturer British Aerospace (BAe) and American aircraft company McDonnell Douglas (MDC), decided to submit their proposal for a navalised version of the land-based BAE Systems Hawk trainer.
Starting from 1991,the Goshawk has been used for intermediate and advanced portions of the Navy/Marine Corps Student Naval Aviator strike pilot training program with Training Air Wing One at Naval Air Station Meridian, Mississippi, and Training Air Wing Two at Naval Air Station Kingsville, Texas. The T-45 replaced the T-2C Buckeye intermediate jet trainer and the TA-4J Skyhawk II advanced jet trainer with an integrated training system that includes the T-45 Goshawk aircraft, operational and instrument flight simulators, academics, and training integration system support. In 2008, the T-45C also began operation in the advanced portion of Navy/Marine Corps Student Naval Flight Officer training track for strike aircraft with Training Air Wing Six at Naval Air Station Pensacola, Florida.
This rendition for Microsoft Flight Simulator includes:
- Highly detailed exterior model
- Highly detailed cockpit model including instructor seat
- Functional MFDs and HUD (*)
- Well behaved "Modern" flight model (**)
- True to life checklists
- Wwise sound package based on real-world recordings

(*) Due to current SDK limitations, the HUD is not collimated. This can create minor problems during precision landings.
Also, due to current coding restrictions, the HUD may not work well with TAA. It is suggested to turn TAA off with the T-45

(**) - this model is tuned to work with the "Modern" flight model and may not work correctly with the Legacy flight model.

I love this Goshawk! Basically a modernized version of the British made Hawk that can operate from carriers. IFE is probably the best military aircraft developer and every one of his aircraft are works of art. He pays attention to the little things and doesn’t skimp on the quality. This Goshawk is beautiful and fun to fly. If you’re considering also the JustFlight Hawk and aren’t focused on its steam gauge style then this is the better choice. My only gripe is that for some reason the in game checklists never utilize the focus (the eye button at the end of each checklist item) function that highlights the checklist item making it easy to find. Not a huge deal but it bugs me a little. Another amazing military plane by an amazing developer!

ILS not working. No ILS button in the MFD to push.

Flies well, but there is one thing that is impossible to overlook. The external engine sounds are absurd. It sounds like a vacuum cleaner.

This is my go to jet for flying. I will say the MB-399 is better for areobatics however I love the feel of this and the cockpit visually is amazing. Plus the manual is so comprehensive alone that could be sold for a few quid and be justifiable. Huge love and respect for IndiaFoxtEcho and their work.

Graphically the T45 is superb inside and out. It feels very real, almost photorealistic. The one exception is the HUD, which is not collimated and does not work well with TAA. Sound is good; it's not amazing all through the RPM range, but when flying at typical power settings it is very believable. The flight model seems very believable (not being a jet pilot myself). Roll rate is very high (as expected) and you can pull _8G under the right conditions. You can't pull crazy high AoA manoeuvres, which I think is realistic - it's not a fighter with an all-moving tail, canards, thrust vectoring etc. Throttle and control response is overall excellent, which is what you'd expect from something based on the Hawk. The systems are well modelled. All the buttons work and you can perform all the tasks you need in MSFS (navigation, systems management etc). The T45 is quite performance hungry, although there is a "lite" version included if you need to improve FPS - a nice touch. However, I recommend checking if your PC struggles to run MSFS normally. Finally - it's a lot of fun. You can't beat a low-level flight in the T45 for sheer entertainment value in MSFS.

Ist jeden Cent wert der Jet auch vom Copilotensitz aus zu fliegen.

It's a great plane! I love flying it and all its features! One bug is the aircraft spoilers go back in when I bring my spoiler lever back all the way.

I think it is quite unfinished this ac. Many buttons but not much working of it. Hud display looks as if the vector is in wrong positon you see it on the upper rim of it. Readability of the HUD is during daytime nearly unpossible. Need more colors that stand out from the background. Hope more attention to this ac will be paid in future update releases. So far it is like a good freeware.

tolles Simulationsgefühl, Cockpit sehr gut gemacht, schön zu fliegen. Erweitertes Manual für die Bedienung wäre wünschenswert.

I am pretty familiar with the T-45C having spent at lot of time with them out at the US Navy bases in El Centro and Meridian - both well known Goshawk haunts. IMHO this model exceeds even the high benchmark standards of Dino & his partners. Slight frustrations around the representation of the HUD (caused by the current constraints of core Sim) do not in any way detract from the immersion levels offered by this model and if you watch some of the UTube videos of the real jets you will be hard pushed to recognise the difference when you fly the model in the new Sim. As is the norm with IndiaFoxtecho we can expect the launch version to be incrementally updated and upgraded especially as the capabilities of Sim itself evolve. Highly recommended
