Hawker Siddeley Harrier - The World's First Jump Jet (Hardcover)

The revolutionary Harrier took to the skies in December 1967, going
on to become the star of the Royal Navy and Air Force during the
Falkland Islands War in 1982. Its US derivative, the McDonnell
Douglas AV-8B Harrier II, proved equally successful with the Marine
Corps in Operations Desert Storm, Iraqi Freedom and Enduring
Freedom. Featuring a wealth of rare and previously unpublished
photographs and diagrams, this photographic history explores the
background that led to the development of this remarkable aircraft.
Mark A. Chambers charts the history and output of Hawker Aircraft
Ltd from Sopwith onwards, through the Harrier's development,
production, flight testing and operational and combat history, and
also considers its future replacement, the Lockheed Martin F-35
Joint Strike Fighter. An effective strike fighter for several
nations for almost half a century, Harrier's longevity is testament
to its practical design and viability - a truly unique combat
aircraft.
