Brand-New Red Arrow Jets Could Be Built at Glasgow Prestwick Airport

  • On July 4, 2025, Aeralis announced Prestwick Airport as the site for its UK final assembly line for new training jets.
  • This decision follows plans to replace the aging Hawk T1 jets, flown by the Red Arrows and due to retire by 2030, with a British-designed modular light jet.
  • The agreement at Prestwick, owned by the Scottish Government since 2013, allows assembling, testing, and industrializing jets with strong local aerospace resources.
  • Aeralis is seeking support from the UK Government to progress the project, which has the potential to manufacture up to 6,000 jets over the next 30 to 40 years and generate several hundred local jobs.
  • This development could restore Prestwick's aerospace manufacturing and boost jobs, apprenticeships, and innovation, marking a significant aviation industry revival in Scotland.
