That is not a 25 pounder. As for the one type rule, well it didnt apply at Leuchars. But remember, gate guards have to be maintained and thats the reason behind the only one aircraft.

Hawk AJT Gate guard at the BAE Systems site at Brough


7 May 2017

Not a 'real' AJT but based on a real aircraft with cosmetic mods, apparently ex LL-5313, a Hawk Mk.53, of the Indonesian Air Force.
