Survivability and armour
Examine the survivability of the aircraft. Note how vulnerable the structure is and how secure the pilot is, whether the fuel tanks are armoured, etc. Describe the armour, if there is any, and also mention the vulnerability of other critical aircraft systems.
Armaments
Offensive armament
The Hawk III is armed with:
- 2 x 7.62 mm Browning machine guns, -mounted (600 rpg = 1,200 total)
Suspended armament
The Hawk III can be outfitted with the following ordnance:

- 1 x 500 lb AN-M64A1 bomb + 4 x 100 lb AN-M30A1 bombs (900 lb total)
Usage in battles
Describe the tactics of playing in the aircraft, the features of using aircraft in a team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but instead, give the reader food for thought. Examine the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).

Pros and cons
Pros:
- Large payload, good for destroying bases and ground targets
- Good maneuverability and speed when unladen
Cons:
- Armament is rather light
- Slightly lower payload weight than the equally ranked Hs 123 A-1
History
During the marco polo bridge incident,The Chinese government has purchased more than a hundred Hawk III from the United States.
Hawk III, a modification of the Navy fighter produced by the American Curtiss Wright Corporation in the 1930s.The original name was FⅡC-3 / BF2C-1.
In fact, the Hawk III had problems in the early design. The metal wings were greatly reduced in maneuverability and were too bulky.
In the end, Curtiss Wright Corporation decided to use wooden materials as wings to improve the maneuverability and reliability of the fighter and reduce the weight of the fighter.
The Chinese government was attracted by the Hawk III carrier aircraft. The reason why Chiang Kai-shek valued the Hawk III carrier aircraft at that time was not good performance but cheap.
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
