FRS.1 Sea Harrier

Britse Royal Navy marine jager die tijdens de Falkland Oorlog zonder verliezen aan eigen zeide enorm veel Argentijnse jachtbommenwerper en jagers uit de lucht wist te schieten.

The Sea Harrier, designed for the British Royal Navy, is an evolution of the Harrier fighter-bomber conceived for the RAF that came into service in the 1970s. The first aircraft with vertical take-off/landing capability, it can operate even where there is little room for manoeuvre and is thus ideal for close troop support. The Sea Harrier is also an excellent dogfighter as seen during the Falklands conflict where this unusual plane scored numerous victories against the Argentine air force.
