Ship
Hawk has excellent flying instincts, which he inherited from his ancestor, which means he is an extremely good pilot, better even than Buck Rogers. He pilots a one-man spaceship that is designed to look like a predatory bird and has retractable grappling talons. The talons are used in "Time of the Hawk" to grab and destroy spaceships. Hawk also accidentally injures Koori with them during his duel with Buck. In a later episode, "Testimony of a Traitor", Hawk uses them to stop a marine who is pursuing Buck.
