The FRS.Mk.1 is the Fleet Air Arm's Sea Harrier. It's a carrier-borne jumpjet used to defend the fleet against enemy aircraft, and can be used for ground attack. It has a pretty tasty radar too.

The AV-8B is the US-made version of the Harrier. It's comparable to the RAF's Gr.Mk.7 and is tasked with ground attack rather than air defence.

The Sea Harrier looks way better too tounge_o.gif

The AV-8B is actually better comparable to the RAF's Harrier Gr.Mk.5. I think they were one and the same, or at least very nearly identical.

The Gr.Mk.7 is an improved version of the Gr.Mk.5. I believe it has better night-attack abilities.

The latest AV-8B, (the one in VBS1) the Harrier II Plus is an even more advanced model eqipped with radar and fleet protection capabilities like the Royal Navy's Harrier FRS2.

So as said the Flk one IS better, lol.

its a very beautiful addon, and its still at beta (but i think thats mainly scripting as stopping with VTOL still needs work)

its amazing how overlooked an addon that is.... hmmm (rushes out to make mission using Harrier and DPM pack) smile_o.gif
