Hi All,

 

Well things do not stand still for long and to survive you have to make things better. That said if you know the right people, you can make thing's happen together. After sometime away from the hobby I am pleased to announce that Harrier List UK is now working together with Hellwing Aviation and Art Hellwing Aviation . I have also finally decide to add my own photography site to Harrier List UK. The new site is called Pegasus Aviation Photography and should have regular updates as and when I go out and about around the UK and beyond. With all the work going on I have still found time to create Nene Valley Aviation Tours. Which we hope will bring some of the best UK and further down the road European and US military aviation tours available today. Having already secured trips to ACC Wattisham, RAF Wyton and RAF Linton-On-Ouse please take your time to visit the new site.

 

Many Thanks,

 

Andy Carney and Lee Hellwing

Harriers to go digital!!

It sounds like something James Bond would be sent to keep out of enemy hands. BAE Systems has announced a GBP 84 million (about $165 million) contract to develop 'Capability E' for its Harrier II GR9 (AV-8B+ counterpart) V/STOL jump jets, while the UK Ministry of Defence values the program at GBP 99 million (about $195 million) within the existing GBP 500 million GR9 capability release programme.

There's no need to call James, but the CAP E contract is nonetheless important to the UK's Harrier fleet, which will remain Britain's key expeditionary close-support aircraft and naval aviation backbone until the F-35B Lightning II STOVL fully supplants them some time in the 2020s. Capability E will involve the design, development, integration and clearance of a number of systems including software functionality for secure communications, the establishment of a second secure communications channel, a replacement video recording system, modified Auxiliary Communications Navigation Identification Panel (ACNIP), and the introduction of a Tactical Information Exchange Capability (TIEC). TIEC is the project name adopted for the introduction of a common system solution that provides Link 16 and IDM data link communications for Tornado GR4 and Harrier GR9 fleets. TIEC will not use a standard MIDS-LVT black boxes, substituting an equivalent item which is lighter, slightly smaller, and comes in a single box instead of 2 boxes. Britain's Harriers are in the process of receiving AN/AQS-33 Sniper ATP surveillance and targeting pods to improve their close air support capabilities, after some complaints surfaced from Afghanistan. The fleet is also involved in Britain's "future contracting for availability" model of fixed-price through-life maintenance support, and the capability release programme will be implemented under the Harrier Joint Upgrade and Maintenance Programme (JUMP) program at RAF Cottesmore as each incremental capability is tested and approved.

PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT 15th of January 2008

 

 

It is with great pleasure that I can now announce that Harrier List UK and The Friends of the Red Arrows have now begun a work co-operation to bring not only all the best of the news from JFH and the Red Arrows but with the help of the FRA team news from around the world. You will now find a link in the main menu to the new FRA home page which is a first for them in there 25 Year history. Although a bit basic in terms of content at this time it is our hope that as much information as possible and in as short as time as possible will be added to the site for you to enjoy. So please watch this space!
