Front Of The Warthog Shark
The Warthog is as formidable as an aircraft can be. It has a canon the size of a small car, and the enemy powers have bad news. But we’re not here for guns and canons to chat about. We’re here to talk about paintings, and the logo on this plane’s mouth traces its history back to the tradition of World War II. According to this tradition, snarling animals have been painted on the mouths of fighter jets. We wanted the enemy to know that we meant business.
The Hawk T1
One of the most patriotic painting jobs we have seen is the British Aerospace Hawk T.1A used by the Royal Air Force of the United Kingdom. The Hawk T1, with a tandem cockpit, is a British-built single-engine jet trainer. The Hawk was first flown in 1974 and has operated for nearly 40 years as an advanced training aircraft.
