An internal aluminium sub-frame supports high-stress areas and mounting points for furniture and openings. One piece walls are a 35mm panel of 2mm fibreglass sheets bonded on both sides over a high-density structural foam core. In a time when more and more customers are hearing on various forums that timber frames in caravans are a thing of the past, it's reassuring to see that the Blackhawk comes with a composite body, constructed in a highly sophisticated process. Customers are attracted to the more compact size and lower weight than the previous 22ft 6in version, though that larger model continues in the range if you think the extra room is necessary. The Blackhawk 595 reviewed here is a 5.95m or 19ft 6in van and is proving to be one of the most popular of the Titan models. Where the customer has selected a Cruisemaster suspension, that is also fitted locally, but I’m told most customers are happy with the Titan independent product, which is rated to 3.7t and has a five-year guarantee. Appliances are all well-known models, and the electronics are also top class and designed for remote travel.

The plumbing and 240V wiring is completed and signed off for local compliance, and windows are installed using the same quality brands seen in most locally built vans. After body shells are unloaded from containers, they are fitted with locally sourced components. When I met owner, James, at the new Burpengary dealership, he showed vans in various stages of completion.
In the last few months, both the workforce and the size of the Titan facility have quadroupled. With sales now around 350 a year, production processes have been well sorted, and as each new model launches, gradual improvements are introduced based on customer feedback. Regular trips to the factory from Australia have ensured their vans can compete head-on in a very competitive section of the local market. This gradual development includes continuous inspections of manufacturing and quality control procedures as a major priority. Over the last five years, Titan has developed a relationship with the factory in southern China where their van bodies are made.
