@grant8567 Except when you've been working crew for 48 hours and they have those damn things on the HPRU at full power 100yds away. haha.

Neat video! I work on these things but I still never see them flown quite like that... Plus this (not sure if its EXACTLY the same one) is 01, VMA-513 "Nightmare" kinda the flag ship jet we have because of paint job. And yes its loud as F$#K, try standing 10 feet away at full throttle, good times.

How come the harrier doesn't have a backing up siren like semi trucks? =P

This is a pretty good little show, but if you want to see something REALLY amazing, you need to watch the British Harrier Display Team fly in person. I've seen all kinds of airshows, but NOTHING I've ever seen (F22, F35, SR71, B2) even comes close to their show. I wish they'd tour the USA someday, as they seem to only fly in European shows.
A truly amazing jet, now over 40 years old. I remember seeing one at the
Cleveland (Burke Lakefront) Airshow in 1968 or 69... looked like a UFO!

2:35 this is what people saw about UFO

i think im going to play modern warfare 2 now.

@maniacmobster ye maybe but the raptor directional ducts are an easy target to knock out but the harriers are hidden under the wings both good but both have drawbacks
-
still is British they just changed internal parts otherwise it would not be called the HARRIER

The harrier is such a cool jet. It just doesn't get any better than this. I especially love its transitional flight capabilities. Awesome!
I'm going to get another chocolate chip cookie, while I read the comments...you guys are fucking hilarious....I love it!!!!!!!!
btw, awesome footage of the jet!

Great piece of British engineering, it shot down 26 argentinan jets in the falklands war and we didnt loose one,
