Professional model maker Steve Howath made this model closely based on Johnson's original design.

Martin Bower design

Martin Bower's Hawk design from War Games, based on Brian Johnson's original. The drawing is dated 24th October 1974, which is approximately when they were preparing the episode. The three rear rockets are changed into one large rocket and two smaller side pods. The weapons wings are made larger with the weapons pods smaller.
