The '''British Aerospace Sea Harrier''' is a naval short take-off and vertical-landing/vertical take-off and landing jet fighter, reconnaissance and attack aircraft, a development of the [[Hawker_Siddeley_Harrier_GR1|Hawker Siddeley Harrier]]. It first entered service with the Royal Navy in April 1980 as the Sea Harrier {{Abbr|FRS1|Fighter, Reconnaissance, Strike, Mk.1}} and became informally known as the "Shar".
