Additional Info

The BAe Harrier was for many decades the most successful V/STOL (Vertical/Short
Take-off and Landing) aircraft in the world. Based on the operational experience
of previous versions the RAF deployed the more powerful Harrier GR.7 version in
the all-weather / night attack role. This advanced version was fitted with FLIR
and ECM systems and carried an extensive arsenal of weapons. The GR.9 was a
further performance-enhanced version of the Harrier, which was mainly used in
Afghanistan. The Harrier GR.9 achieved a high mission availability with its
laser-guided bombs a high hit ratio. The last Harrier flight took place on
24.11. 2010
