About Joint Force Harrier
A group dedicated to the BAE Harrier. Pictures of GR7's, GR9's, Sea Harriers and AV-8's all welcome.
Joint Force Harrier was established on 1 April 2000 in response to the proposal brought by the British Government as part of Strategic Defence Review. Originally called Joint Force 2000, it combined the Royal Navy's Sea Harrier FA2 squadrons with the RAF's Harrier GR 7/7A squadrons under a single command structure within RAF Strike Command. This force was to be deployable from both Invincible-class aircraft carriers, Royal Air Force stations and deployed air bases.
Sadly, thanks to the UK governments defence review, the UK Harrier will be withdrawn from service on 16th December 2010 which in my opinion is a very short sighted movement by the current government.
Thanks for the memories.
