As soon as you figure out a way to use a Harrier as a helicopter (medivac, trooper/cargo transport) lemme know.

Clearly i was talking about coolness factor, not utility. Seriously now. Look at an AH-1W Super Cobra and tell me that the Osprey looks cooler.

I *also* dont like the new "digital" cammie pattern we use because its ugly...but that doesnt mean i'd want to deploy with my woodlands. Not getting shot > coolness factor.

The Harrier sucks. Apart from the obvious that the Harrier is incapable of fulfilling the same roles as the Osprey, it doesn't have enough payload, is dangerous to operate, and is relatively defenseless against other jets. Good combination! :thumbsup:
