Introduction to the Hawker Siddeley Harrier
THE design concept of the Harrier (H.S.A. Type Number P.1127) arose over a few months in the summer and autumn of 1957 in studies by the Project Office at Hawker Aircraft Ltd.…
Operational Aspects of the Harrier
THE engineering of the Harrier has been directed to maximising its effectiveness in the three operational aspects that are fundamentally necessary to its existence. These are:
The Achievements and Future Potential of the Harrier
TO an extent so far unequalled, the engineering of the Harrier has reconciled the aerodynamic, propulsive, structural and controllability conflicts which have for so long denied…
Aerodynamic Design—Stability and Control
THE Harrier is not only an effective V/S.T.O.L. machine, it is also an efficient strike aircraft. This has only been achieved by the solution of a wider than usual range of…
Aerodynamic Design ‐ Air Intake
WITH a vertical take‐off aircraft like the Hawker Siddeley Harrier, the only ground attack/ reconnaissance jet V/S.T.O.L. weapons system in operational service today, the air…
Aerodynamic Design — Wing
IN order to appreciate the development of the wing, it is necessary to understand how the basic objectives of the aircraft affect the wing, and the platform of knowledge on which…
Structural Design of the Harrier
THERE is no doubt that the outstanding difference between the structural design philosophy of the Harrier, as compared with conventional aircraft designed for similar duties, lies…
