New Harrier Takes Up The Fight Against The Taleban
Two Harrier GR9A aircraft have arrived in Afghanistan from the U.K. after a journey of more than 3500 miles - and just under two hours later they were ready for action flying over UK ground forces combating the Taleban.
The 2 Harrier GR9As are replacing 2 of the current Harrier GR7A fleet in Afghanistan and over the coming year the Harrier detachment – operating from Kandahar Airfield - will move to a 100% Harrier GR9A fleet.
