Blue Hawk, Steel roller coaster in Mableton, Georgia, United States

Blue Hawk is a steel roller coaster in the Cotton States section of Six Flags Over Georgia, built by Vekoma. Its 835.8-metre track reaches 37.2 metres and 83.7 km/h, with five inversions: a two-inversion butterfly, a reverse sidewinder and a double corkscrew. Two seven-car trains carry 28 riders in vest restraints.

Built by Vekoma, the coaster opened in 1989 as Kamikaze at Hunt's Pier in Wildwood, New Jersey. Six Flags moved it to the Cotton States section of Six Flags Over Georgia, where it opened as Ninja on March 1, 1992, then the park's tallest coaster. After the 2015 season it was repainted blue with gray supports, retracked and given new trains, reopening as Blue Hawk on June 9, 2016 after a public vote.

The 2016 renovation included military-themed elements and a public naming contest where visitors selected Blue Hawk as the new identity.

Blue Hawk runs two trains of seven cars, each seating four riders in two rows of two, for 28 passengers per train and about 1,300 riders per hour. Riders must be at least 1.20 m tall. The circuit lasts 1 minute 20 seconds, and the lift-hill motor sits at the top of the 37.2 m hill rather than at its base.

The lift hill's motor sits at the top of the 37-metre structure rather than at its base, an unusual arrangement since most coasters keep the motor below for easier maintenance. The ride also appeared as Walley World's "Velociraptor" in the 2015 film Vacation, before its 2016 renovation.
