Harrier / War Thunder

  • The Hawker Siddeley Harrier is one of the most iconic vehicles of the Royal Air Force - and one of the very few aircraft capable of vertical/short takeoff and landing operations. During the Cold War era it basically had only one counterpart - the Soviet Yak-38 strike aircraft. It took British engineers almost ten years to get it ready for production, but it was all worth it: in the end, the Harrier became one of the symbols of the technological might of the United Kingdom.

    *When I left the Canadian Armoured Corps in the eighties, I opened a bar in Ladyville Belize, just down the road from the Brit army base. Harrier and Puma pilots were regular guests, so much so that when I mentioned I hoped to have a Christmas tree for the soldiers away from home but there was no such tree in Belize, a Puma pilot then mentioned that there were such trees in Guatemala but he would have to sneak across the border at night to get one. Later that week there was the downwash of a helicopter above the bar and seconds later, a beautiful pine tree thumped down into the bar's courtyard. :) True story.*

    I remember back in the late 80’s the Pentagon was having my squadron do “Run-in’s” as I called it, on hostile to the US, military bases. We would turn directly at the base and begin identifying any and everything visible to then “Ultra Modern” surveillance equipment mounted on our aircraft. We would brake off our “Run-in’s” at the 10 nm line and reset out over the ocean to have another go until we had the information we wanted. I remember on more than one instance Harriers coming to our aide driving off well armed Mig fighters who had attached themselves to our wings in hope to force us to land. We knew they were well armed because the first thing they did was to pull up even with our cockpit and slowly roll away so that we got a full close-up view of the bottom side of their wings. Then they would circle around and re-form up on us. Of course in the spirit of US peaceable intentions, we were UNARMED. LOL

      oh it's definitely coming, maybe even soon, as well as the AV-8B. I expect Gaijin to basically do the same thing with them as they did with the GR.1: introduce powerful missile systems onto a less-than-desirable airframe to "balance" it. I imagine this would be a "good" way for high-performance all-aspect missiles to be added, especially the AIM-9L. That and the A-4 Skyhawk.

      And no sea harrier was shot down in air-to-air, so that part of the video isn't quite right.
      Check out these K:D ratios for one RN SQDN.
      Sea Harrier 801 SQDN RN - 1980s. In terms of supremacy = vs. Phantom 25:1 superiority - vs. F14 = 40:1 - vs. F15 = 3:1 (That's overall as a SQN not the top guys alone) - some guys kill F-15s at 25:1
      Look up "Sharkey" ward's interview with Ken Griffiths on YT, or Cdr. Sharkey Ward's book too.
      Also they didn't use VIFFING at all in the Falklands. That's just a bit of psychology.

    True Falklands story about Steve brown's Harrier:
    When Steve brown was land his Harrier on the Atlantic Conveyor he set the nozzles to 27° whilst landing.
    Soon he realised how close his tail was to the pole at the end of the ship. So he moved forward which made it worst. His mistake was that he forgot to set the nozzles to 90° and he soon realised that. He then pushed it to 90° but as he tried to land the nose flopped over the side bringing the plane with it. "That's the end of that airplane" said (Can't remember his name) from the main deck. It looked as if he was going to smash straight into the water, but just then Steve Brown (thinking quickly) pushed the throttle to 100/WEP and managed to pull the 21,000lb jet up away from being lost and (name not remembered) looked from the deck amazed even though it seemed the aircraft had tipped over the side. Steve Brown then turned vertical landing off and flew away from the Atlantic Conveyor with little fuel left. He later landed at Hermes.

    Some missinformation. No Harrier performed VFFING in 1982, they fought as they were trained and slowing down during air combat makes you easy target. They fought dog fighting in normal maneuvers, the few air to air combats Argentine Daggers and Mirage III gained first shoot due their speed advantage but lost energy and their missiles failed due poor reliability of the old missiles then the British pilots outmaneuver them and fired the Limas.
    British pilots were trained with outdated sidewinders so they fired the 9Ls from the 6 as usual. The advantage they got was the the Limas had a higher reliability with new seeker heads and electronics, so unlike Argentine 9Bs and Saffirs they didn't lock on the sun, didn't lost targets doing high G evasion and could be launched from farther.
    Only 1 Mirage IIIC was lost to air combat. Fighter pilots were ordered to not merged in turn fights against Sea Harriers and Sea Harriers avoided Mirages coming hot supersonic and high staying out of their range, waiting 4 minutes and then proceeding, since the Mirages couldn't stay in the area due lack of air refueling.
    All other fighter losses except 2 Daggers, were fighter bombers, and 65% of them were lost to Royal Navy anti air missiles.
