Falklands War Sea Harrier Rises Flight Deck Aircraft Carrier Navy 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 fighter jet as it dramatically rises from the flight deck of a Royal Navy aircraft carrier. The photograph captures the precise moment of launch, utilising the unique ski-jump deck system of HMS Hermes or HMS Invincible to propel the aircraft into the cold air of the South Atlantic. This legendary jump jet was the primary defensive and offensive shield of the task force, rising into contested skies to intercept enemy air raids and provide vital ground support for troops fighting ashore. It is unused in mint condition.
