Hawker Sea Hawk FB.3 model: Details and Handling:

The Sea Hawk FB.3 represents the first of the fighter-bomber models for this series. Like the F.2 (and all variants beyond this point), it was fitted with powered controls and hardpoints for payloads. You may notice a slight difference in handling due to the payloads on the armed versions of the model. The FB.3 was fitted with the RR Nene Mk.101 engine, supplying 5,000lb thrust, and was configured for a variety of payloads, including droptanks, 25lb and 60lb rockets and 500lb GP bombs.

Points of recognition for the FB.3 include underwing payloads, lack of radio altimeter aerials under the tailplane, but the inclusiuon of the small ram intake on the starboard forward fuselage. It also had an array of UHF radio aerial antennae on the fuselage spine as opposed to the F.1/2 'blade' type. Lastly, there was no landing light on the nose bay door.
