With a digital cockpit, fly-by-wire controls, high-fidelity simulators, and a GE F404 engine capable of speeds near Mach 0.975, the Red Hawk is built to bring fighter-like training into the modern era. But testing issues and production delays have slowed its rollout. Watch the full video to see how the T-7A is reshaping U.S. fighter pilot training!
