Here’s a funky idea! Personnel pods on Harriers! Called EXINT, the pods would fit under the wings of the Harrier, allowing it to carry two men per pod, or the equivalent weight of two men in cargo. #Harrierpres #Secretprojects
Back over Belize with XZ996 from 1417 flight. Note the pilot is using nozzles rather than airbrake to hold formation with the photo aircraft. Circa 1992. #Harrierpres #HarrierGR3 #1417flight
A mix of 1(f) and 233OCU Harrier GR.3s and T.4s flying formation, wearing their Arctic schemes! the T bird looks especially stunning!! #Harrierpres #ArcticHarrier #HarrierT4 #Harrierjumpjet #Hawkersiddeley

Bit of a story... imagine it's march 1983, four IV squadron GR.3s are on a strike recon mission into Czechoslovakia, when they spot aircraft ahead. They move up to VID the formation, a group of Czech Su-7s, the Harriers engage the Sukhois. Here's some shots of the dogfight.
