The initial version, the Harrier GR.1, was based on the pre-production P.1127 (RAF) fighter, of which a batch of 60 was ordered for the RAF in 1967. A similar model \u2013 designated Mk.50, with simplified navigational\/attack system, was exported to the United States as the AV-8A, for use by the Marine Corps and a total of 102 aircraft were delivered during the early 1970s. Some 60 aircraft were upgraded as the AV-8Cs by mid 1980s.<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\">The Harrier GR.1\/AV-8 was a single-seat fixed-wing all-metal monoplane powered by a R-R Pegasus turbojet (US designation F402), used for ground-attack, close air support, reconnaissance and fighter roles. It was fitted with two air intakes and four vectoring nozzles for directing the thrust generated by the engine. It had a tandem undercarriage and two outrigger landing gear units. External store hard points were installed for carrying a variety of weapons and external fuel tanks: two under each wing and one under the fuselage, while two Aden cannon gun pods could also be fitted beneath the fuselage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\">The Harrier was a very innovative aeroplane and the only truly successful V\/STOL design of the many that arose during that period of time and it became the versatile warrior of the RAF.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Colour schemes included in the kit:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>1) Hawker Siddeley Harrier GR Mk.3, XV738, Grey B, No.4 Sq., RAF, during \u2018Exercise Match Coat\u2018, G\u00fctersloh Air Base, Germany, September 1984<\/p>\n<p>2) Hawker Siddeley Harrier GR Mk.3, XZ129\/A2604 (ex-RAF a\/c), Black ETS, Engineering Training School (ETS), RN, serving as an instructional airframe, RNAS Yeovilton (HMS Heron), Somerset, U.K., 1992-94<\/p>\n<p>3) AV-8A Harrier (Hawker Siddeley Harrier Mk.50), BuNo 158703, White 703, VMA-513 (Marine Attack Squadron 513) \u2018Flying Nightmares\u2019, US Marine Corps, Sheppard AFB, Texas, U.S.A., April 1980<\/p>\n<p>4) AV-8C Harrier (Hawker Siddeley Harrier Mk.50), BuNo 158387\/N719NA, Black 719, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), Ames Research Center, NAS Moffett Field, California, U.S.A., 1986-1995<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Assembly instructions:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-710\" src=\"http:\/\/www.4pluspublications.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/pdf-download.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"60\" height=\"58\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.4pluspublications.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/MKM144119-Harrier-Special-markings_instr-web.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MKM144119 Harrier Special markings_instr web<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>RELEASED 3\/2022<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>One injection-moulded kit is supplied in this box; it contains 48 parts and one clear part (the cockpit canopy).
