Coming in November

By Andy Evans

The essential Warpaint series celebrates its milestone 150th release with a subject close to the hearts of all military aviation enthusiasts, telling the all-to-brief story of the Harrier II in British service.

Lavishly illustrated with contemporary photographs covering all aspects of the aircraft’s development and operational service, this account starts with the replacement of the RAF’s GR.3s with the GR.5, followed shortly by the even-more-capable GR.7, and ends with final deployment of the type to Afghanistan as part of Joint Force Harrier.

As with previous titles in the series the book includes a comprehensive walkaround, scale plans and colour profiles by Sam Pearson, and draws another line in aviation history under a type that reached the end of its service prematurely. The Harrier has been covered in all the major scales by the model kit industry and, with a myriad of high quality detail shots of the aircraft both at work and at rest,  this latest Warpaint represents an essential reference for a modelling project.
