TL;DR for those who say the AV-8B is the same:
Smaller wing on GR.1 and FRS.1
Less hard points
Faster
Different canopy
Different nose (shorter and sharper on Gr.1)
Different refueling probe system.
different tailcone.

GR.1:
Max speed of 635kn
Max diving speed of Mach 1.3
Service ceiling of 51,200 ft
FRS.1:
Top speed of 640 knots
Service ceiling of 50997 ft
Also used for Recon (FRS.51)

I don’t remember if this was accepted before or not

#

But the Harrier trello card seems to be gone

#

For comparison with the Harrier IIs

#

+the outrigger position didn’t change between the Harrier I and the II

#

The wing was just extended beyond that

Bump

#

Also @main river bruh I did read the trello, that only the AV8B Harrier II

#

Which is McDonnell Douglas built

#

The GR.1 is the original Harrier made by Hawker Siddley

It’s like the British plane

I mean it would be disappointing if it’s advances customization because it would just be a set of straight downgrades from the AV-8B

#

Except like speed and max alt

marble nimbus
#

Well variants can be advanced customization as seen with the P-3 for example and L-1011

#

Personally the Av-8 and Harrier basically look the same

#

Only the canopy and wings seem to be different

#

If that's different enough in your eyes then go for it

worn apex

#

well I always assumed they looked the same visually

#

Its like a Hornet and Super Hornet

#

total rework and its size is different too. but visually the same plane

#

between AV8B and earlier harriers.

#

maybe not AS extreme as the super hornet but the same principle.

#

We need more harrier variants :/

#

I wonder why the Av-8 got backstocked

fickle bolt
#

Supersonic harrier?

#

I’ve looked into this sometime before

#

Maybe sometime in the future but I’m quite backlogged as of now
