GR3 was operated by the Army air corps, was it not? I thought that the interceptor missions were carried out by naval aircraft while the ground attack was concentrated on by the GR versions? am i wrong? How many GR versions were used? Do you get bored of people asking you questions? Â <span id='postcolor'> The GR3 was actually operated by the RAF during the Falklands War for ground attack missions... It was armed with twin SNEB rocket pods and a handful of Mk82 bombs HOWEVER.... The Sea Harrier (air superiority fighter - remember it WAS 1982! was used in the initial bombing runs on Port Stanley during the first stages of the war (Just after the famous Black Buck operation) We had no F4 Phantoms out there due to the logistics and the size of the carriers) was operated by the Fleet Air Arm squadron of the Royal Navy - thus the RN insignia on the SH. For more information have a look at this fantastic site: Britains Small Wars Harrier Page<span id='postcolor'> I wondered wether they had put any F4's on that place, i could not remember. If they had, what would a mirage vs Fantom be like in outcome? i think that the Harrier was probably more suited to ground attack alhough its slower speed helped it to maintain long attacks in one pass, it also made it more vulnerable to small arms and SAMs. Would it have been diferent to have F4s around? Had they started getting rid of the proper carreirs by then? its a shame, seeming as the UK had a good naval fleet. Â But i suppose the lack of boats kept the viallge people from finding [and dancing on them] Â Â [joke!] And i dont know if this was answered in the above explanation by Col klink, but can you do anything about the slow down speed at corners? i dont know any real figures but i am sure that the harrier will not loose so much power in a simple bank.<span id='postcolor'> erm the harrier is fast enuff. who can hit a target in a supersonic bombing run

    i like the way the planes fly, and is there any way to make laser guided bombs guided by themselves. because most planes these days dont need a designator

They all look fantastic. If you dont like them try making one yourself (and you might get an idea for how hard addon making is and thus how fortunate you are).

    Discussion about usa politics

    oh and the reason why the americans never loose a war is because they know they cant win a straight fight so they have to bring in the air support

    Discussion about usa politics

    i will be first in line to slag off the americans (as youve probably noticed) but at the end of the day we (england) should stick with out real allies and that is the USA (nomatter how dense george bush is) and not the french or the germans or the russians who weve spent most of the past centurys fighting wars against
