Our friends at BAE Systems have come up with a couple of simple templates for you to print out (on light card would be best) and get cracking on your origami skills.

These designs let you make a Eurofighter Typhoon and a Hawk jet, just like the Red Arrows fly.

Full instructions are included on the templates, so what are you waiting for?

Simply download the designs of your choice here, by clicking either EUROFIGHTER or HAWK.

Good luck, and don't forget to send us pictures of your finished planes.

Chocks away!!
