British Aerospace Harrier II

The British Aerospace/McDonnell Douglas Harrier II is a second generation vertical/short takeoff and landing (V/STOL) jet aircraft used previously by the UK's Royal Air Force (RAF) and, between 2006–2010, the Royal Navy. Developed from the earlier Hawker Siddeley Harrier, it was produced as the Harrier GR5/GR7/GR9, and is closely related to the U.S.-built AV-8B Harrier II. Both are primarily used for light attack or multi-role tasks, and are often operated from small aircraft carriers. The Harrier II fell victim to a UK defence review which saw all its operational airframes retired from service in December 2010.

The Mil Mi-24 (Russian: Миль Ми-24) (NATO reporting name: Hind) is a large helicopter gunship (and attack helicopter)[1] and low-capacity troop transport (with room for 8 passengers) produced by Mil Moscow Helicopter Plant and operated from 1972 by the Soviet Air Force, its successors, and over thirty other nations. In October 2007, the Russian Air Force announced it would replace its 250 Mi-24 helicopter gunships with 300 more modern Mi-28s and possibly Ka-50s by 2015.
