ABOUT
Generally known as the “jump jet”, the Harrier uses the unique properties of ‘four-poster’ vectoring-thrust technology for short or vertical take-offs and landings.
Thus it is not dependent on the runways that would be among the first casualties of a major war. Yet this British invention, developed from a French idea with American money, long remained little more than a toy. The Harrier was slowly proved in British and American service, and the Falklands campaign of 1982 showed how capable and essential this type really is. Tragically for the UK, further development of this magnificent combat aircraft has now moved irrevocably across the Atlantic to the USA.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome and colour images, fine line drawings. Decorated end papers.
