[Kit Review] - Revell 1/144 - BAe Harrier GR Mk.7 -

[Kit Review] - Revell 1/144 - BAe Harrier GR Mk.7 - Box art

Been a year since the RAF Harrier was mothballed so thought its about time i modelled this legend of a aircraft.

Usual great quality from Revell on there affordable 1/144 kits, the GR.7 specific sprue is the small one at the bottom right.

Nice panel lines and bumbs.

2 decals options, both RAF. Surprised by the lack of aftermarket  decals for 1/144 RAF Harriers available, none that is.

First set of marking is for a Flight Commander RAF Harrier.

Quite like this scheme with the bomb tally below the cockpit.

Already built the US version of the Harrier so know what to expect and can improve on the previous build.

I've seen good things about this kit, looks to be the same as the AV-8B II+ just different nose. I wanna get my hands on one of these myself. Look forward to this one :)
