The Hornet is a larger and more powerful aircraft, and the flying/displaying is very different.

The Red Arrows fly a larger formation and at higher speeds; the Blue Angels fly closer and slower.

The Hawk has one engine, which has less power than one of the two engines on the Hornet.

The Hawk is designed as a trainer aircraft and the Hornet is a front line fighting aircraft, hence the difference in the displays.

Each team, is at the top of their league.
