Richly illustrated with contemporary photographs covering all aspects of the development and deployment of the British Harrier II, this account begins with the replacement of the RAF's GR.3 by the GR.5, followed shortly afterwards by the even more capable GR.7, and ends with the last deployment of this type in Afghanistan as part of Joint Force Harrier. Like the previous titles in the series, the book includes a comprehensive walk-through, scale plans and colour profiles by Sam Pearson, drawing another line under aviation history for a type that reached the end of its service life prematurely. The Harrier has been covered by the model-making industry in all major scales, and with a wealth of high-quality detailed photographs of the aircraft both in action and at rest, this work in the Warpaint series is an indispensable reference for model-making projects.
