GR9 Harrier II onboard HMS Ark Royal in June 2010, just 6 months before the ship was paid off. #photography #blackandwhite #harrierii #hmsarkroyal #royalnavy #warship #fighterfriday #EastCoastKin
I recently discovered that there’s an AV-8B+ Harrier II flying out of Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake with VX-9 and VX-31. I didn’t know the Harrier II was still in active service given how old the birds are now.
Pretty rad knowing there’s some Harriers out in the rugged Coso Volcanic Field doing training flights like something out of Star Wars.
