Details:

Bring classic British V/STOL strike aviation to your collection with the Italeri Harrier GR.3 / GR.7 Winter Camo (91278). This iconic “Jump Jet” represents one of the most revolutionary combat aircraft ever developed, designed by Hawker Siddeley for short take-off and vertical landing (STOVL) operations. Entering RAF service in the 1970s, the Harrier GR.3 became a key close air support platform, most famously proving its effectiveness during the Falklands Conflict, where its ability to operate from improvised forward bases provided a major tactical advantage.

The GR.3 variant introduced improved avionics, a lengthened nose housing a laser rangefinder, and upgraded electronic countermeasures systems, enhancing its ground attack precision and survivability. The GR.7 development brought further improvements in night operations capability, sensor integration, and weapons flexibility, making the Harrier family a long-serving and highly adaptable strike platform.

This detailed plastic model kit features the distinctive winter camouflage scheme and accurately reproduces the Harrier’s unique design, including its vectored thrust nozzles, compact fuselage, and under-fuselage armament configuration. Designed for intermediate modellers, it offers a rewarding build with finely moulded parts and authentic RAF marking options.
