EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the McDonnell Douglas T-45A Goshawk, specifically aircraft number 163616 (MSN A018) of Tactical Training Wing 2 (TW-2) at Naval Air Station (NAS) Kingsville, Texas. Circa 2000, the Goshawk, with call sign 216, sits proudly on the tarmac against a backdrop of blue skies and Texas terrain. The McDonnell Douglas T-45A Goshawk is a twin-engine, twin-tail, supersonic jet trainer used by the United States Navy and Marine Corps. Designed as a replacement for the T-2 Buckeye, the T-45A provides advanced training in carrier-based navigation, combat maneuvers, and weapons delivery. This image captures the sleek and powerful design of the aircraft, with its distinctive twin tails and intricate engine details. NAS Kingsville, located in southern Texas, is the primary site for Navy and Marine Corps pilot and naval flight officer training. TW-2, one of three wings at the base, is responsible for providing advanced jet training to naval aviators. The T-45A Goshawk is an integral part of this training program, preparing future pilots for the demands of carrier-based aviation. This photograph, from The Tony Lovelock Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique glimpse into the world of naval aviation and the important role the McDonnell Douglas T-45A Goshawk plays in shaping the next generation of naval aviators. The image captures the spirit of flight, transport, and the aeronautical achievements of the United States Navy.
