A Hawker tengeri sólyom is a British single-seat jet fighter of the Fleet Air Arm (FAA), the air branch of the Royal Navy (RN), built by Hawker Aircraft and its sister company, Armstrong Whitworth Aircraft. Although its origins stemmed from earlier Hawker piston-engined fighters, the Sea Hawk became the company’s first jet aircraft. Following the type’s acceptance in the RN, the Sea Hawk proved to be a reliable and sturdy workhorse. A considerable number were also produced for the export market, and were operated from aircraft carriers in both Dutch and Indian service. The last operational Sea Hawks, operated by the Indian Navy, were retired in 1983.

The Hawker Sea Hawk was a British single-seat jet fighter of the Fleet Air Arm (FAA), the air branch of the Royal Navy (RN), built by Hawker Aircraft and its sister company, Armstrong Whitworth Aircraft. Although its origins stemmed from earlier Hawker piston-engined fighters, the Sea Hawk became the company’s first jet aircraft. After successful acceptance in the RN, the type proved to be a reliable and sturdy workhorse and went on to export success abroad.
The Sea Hawk was developed as a navalised version of the Hawker P.1040 prototype jet fighter, which itself had been derived from the piston-powered Hawker Sea Fury. The P.1040 was modified with a strengthened fuselage, folding wings, an arrester hook and other naval equipment. The first prototype Sea Hawk flew in September 1947 and entered service with the FAA in March 1953. It was initially operated as a day fighter, but later variants were equipped for all-weather and ground-attack roles.
The Sea Hawk saw combat service with the RN during the Suez Crisis of 1956, where it performed well against Egyptian air defences. It also participated in the Indonesian Confrontation of 1962, flying from British carriers alongside Australian and New Zealand forces. The Sea Hawk was also exported to several countries, including India, Germany and the Netherlands. It was retired from RN service in 1960, but continued to fly with the Indian Navy until 1978.
