Historical background and application of the model

The Harrier T.4 and T.8 were British two-seat variants of the iconic Harrier, used primarily by the RAF and Royal Navy for pilot training and tactical support missions. The Harrier entered service at the end of the 1960s and was a key participant in numerous conflicts, such as the Falklands War (1982), during the Cold War, and international missions up to the early 21st century. Its vertical take-off capability made it a groundbreaking battlefield solution.
