The
AV-8B Harrier II multirole attack and close air support aircraft was
born from the collaboration between British and American aeronautical
industries. It represents a significant evolution compared to the first
short takeoff and vertical landing (V/STOL) aircraft of the Harrier
family. The AV-8B was developed and implemented to operate from aircraft
carriers without catapults and from amphibious assault ships, as well
as from improvised landing strips. Thanks to these characteristics, it
has been widely employed by the United States Marine Corps, including in
operational contexts. Capable of carrying an offensive payload
consisting of air-to-air missiles, guided bombs, and air-to-surface
missiles, the AV-8B is characterized by considerable operational
flexibility and the ability to perform numerous types of missions.
Finshed size: 19 cm.
