Ex-JFH Aircraft Brought By US Marines
More info on Joint Force Harrier
Only thing I'm curious about is which marks are being sent over and how they compare to the current US marine aircraft. I'd guess all the GR7A's and GR9A's will be going as they have the uprated engines, but I guess the standard GR7's & GR9's could be useful too. Note that the engines are not compatible between the standard and A variants of these aircraft.

If it was left to me I'd have BAE go back to the drawing board, dig up the plans for the Supersonic Harrier and start from there for a new fighter.

If God had wanted the army to fly, he would have made the sky brown.
If God meant man to fly, He'd have given us bigger wallets.
If God had meant for men to fly he would have made their bones hollow and not their heads.

You need to pay more attention to the news.SvenPhantom wrote:But this also shows the Marine's lack of confidence in Congress to not cancel the F-35B.
