SUPER DECAL FOR 3 VERSIONS - COLOR INSTRUCTION SHEET

The Harrier is probably the most famous military aircraft with V / STOL characteristics (vertical and / or short takeoff and landing) of history. Designed and developed during the sixties by the British company Hawker Siddeley, the Harrier entered active service at the end of the decade. Its Rolls Royce Pegasus engine and its project realized with the adoption of lateral flow nozzles that change the direction of the propulsive thrust have contributed to the creation of its notoriety and its myth. Widely used in the military by the British Royal Air Force, the Harrier GR.1 also holds a prize. In May 1969 a transatlantic commemorative competition was held (50 years after the first transoceanic flight) between London and New York.
