Harrier News
 
BAES Brough has delivered the final Harrier GR.9 replacement rear fuselages. The £20 million programme involved the manufacture of nine bare rear fuselages designed to be fitted retrospectively and which are now being held in RAF stores until in-service aircraft require rear fuselage replacement.
