EADS subsidiary company Patria Aviation Oy has received a €40 million order from the Finnish Air Force to upgrade its fleet of 18 Hawk Mk66 trainers.
The 18 aircraft are former Swiss Air Force, and are similar to the Mk51, of which the Finnish Air Force has 49 examples. The planned upgrade will include a revised cockpit and avionics to bring the jets to a standard common with that of the upgraded Mk51A fleet, currently comprising five aircraft, and will last until 2013.
