The Hawk is a single-seat low-wing monoplane stressed to 9 Gs. Originally it was designed to be built around a surplus 200-gallon drop-tank, but plans also provide for a bulkhead and stressed-skin structure. The wings are built with twin light-alloy spars, and the landing gear is the non-retractable tricycle type. Fuel is carried in a forward tank with the capacity of nine gallons, but an optional 14-gallon tank can be added in the aft section.
