Taking its first flight in 1967 and after a rigorous two years of testing went into active military service for the RAF. The Harrier took full advantage of the newly designed ski-jump on aircraft carriers specifically implemented for that purpose, the Harrier becane one of the most versatile aircrafts serving as they could operate and take flight on smaller runways than most military jets and took on several roles as they were built for ground attacks but were considered a multi-role fighter, seeing success with England and also the US military. Review: Detailed, good molding, great decals - This is said to be a 1974 kit but it competes well with any modern day kit. The kit appears to be quite accurate. Optional wing tanks and under-wing bombs are provided. The new edition decal sheet is superb, on register, good colors, and with a great many detail stencils. The raised panel lines can easily be traced with a fence to guide the engraving tool if one wishes to do so. The kit is intended as wheels down but I decided to go "gear up." The landing gear panels or covers needed some adjusting in size to fit but it went well. Clear canopy has as much detail as a larger scale kit and fits well. I certainly recommend this kit.
