Falklands War Harrier Rises Vertically Carrier Ship Flight Deck Military Postcard

NR09 This is a superb opportunity to secure this limited edition collectors postcard of the Falklands War published shortly after the conclusion of the conflict to commemorate the events. This postcard depicts a British Sea Harrier jet fighter utilizing its famous vector-thrust engine nozzles as it rises vertically from the flight deck of a Royal Navy aircraft carrier. The photograph captures the immense power and unique vertical takeoff capability that allowed these jump jets to operate flawlessly from cramped, pitching decks in the middle of the rough South Atlantic seas. Rising rapidly to join active combat air patrols, these versatile fighters were the vital front line of defense, intercepting incoming low-level air raids and safeguarding the fleet throughout the campaign. It is unused in mint condition.
