In the Falklands, the Argentinians referred the Harrier as the "silent death". Due to its ability to pop up out of nowhere, turn on a sixpence and go to guns on them. Many of argentine jets,ships and tanks were destroyed by sneak attacks made by harriers.

[@jimtaylor294]

Ironically the Vulcan was similar in her effect on the Argies (despite having four Olympus turbojets & being known for her Howl), because in her strikes on the islands they didn't hear her until she'd passed overhead & everything was exploding 😂 . Galtieri's cabinet immediately realized that if the UK wanted to, it could stike targets in Argentina itself, and they could do very little to stop them 🤔

Sea Harrier = 'La Muerte Negra' - 'The Black Death.' Falklands war 1982 , 20 confirmed kills , no losses air-to-air

[@andrewallen9993]

Nice to see these British inventions (VTOL jet and hovercraft) still being used.

[@shenmisheshou7002]

While the Marines will retire theirs soon, the Harrier has proven itself in combat many times, while exotic, fancy planes like the F-22 mostly just fly air shows.

[@SkiesTribune]

In my humble opinion, it's the most amazing plane ever built.

[@shenmisheshou7002]

The fancy planes like the F-22 and F-35 get all of the glory, but never see any actual dogfights, while the lowly Harriers (all models) has served with distinction is several wars and has a 42 combat kills with no losses to other aircraft. It was praised as one of the key weapons in the gulf wars, and continues to serve with distinction, having recently shot down six Houthi drones. You can call me partial because I was in VMA-513, but I was also in VMFA-451 (F4J) and the plane I more commonly associate with he the Harrier.

[@marekhlavackovi3677]

Completely failed in its fleet defence role in the Falklands because it was far, far too slow. If they'd stuck with the Phantom and at least one proper aircraft carrier they wouldn't have haemorrhaged the ships that they lost to fast jet attacks from close and at long range. Decent at the ground role and that's all she wrote.

[@xvo7271]

if they sucked that bad, how come they shot down quite alot of the argies aircraft?

[@ciaranoconnor1949]

@@xvo7271 "Completely failed in its fleet defence role". The fact that Argentinian aircraft could even get close to the shipping meant that it failed to do its job. A real fighter could have intercepted the Argentine fighter bombers before they got anywhere near the island and/or the fleet ships. The Harrier was so slow it couldn't do that. They had to wait for the Argentinians to come down from altitude and slow down to do bomb runs on the ships and the islands so they could engage. Additionally the Yanks gave the British the new sidewinder missile (AIM-9L) on the way down to the Falklands. This sidewinder was a game changer and would have given ANY aircraft an edge in such close low-speed air-to-air combat situations. So it wasn't the plane or the pilots, it was the missile.

[@xvo7271]

@@ciaranoconnor1949 literally 2 of our pilots managed to get behind 4 argentine pilots and destroyed 3. our pilots where without a doubt better, plus if i remember correctly some of our ships werent even fitted with missiles to defend itself

[@ciaranoconnor1949]

@@xvo7271 21 of the 23 aircraft shot down, were shot down with an AIM Nine Lima. They were so important that the Americans shipped them to Ascension island to be picked up on the way down. The nickname of the sidewinder AIM-9L was "the death ray". It was the most advanced short range air to air missile of its time and the first heat seeker that could be fired from any orientation, including head-on. So again, not the pilots, not the plane, the missile.
