Does anyone know of any 1/32 decals for an AV-8B Harrier II Plus, preferably Marine? Also does anyone know a typical weapons load? Finally if it was loaded with GBU-12s would it carry a sniper pod or flir and on which station.
Thanks in advance.

Zotz Decals has a sheet with a USMC, Spanish And Italian AV-8B+. I think it is out of production but it looks like MEGA-HOBBY has one in stock.

Typical early config (during OEF/OIF) was Sta 1 & 7 (Aim 9) usually empty, Sta 2 & 6 with EFT's, Sta 3 with a GBU-12 or -16, Sta 5 with a Litening Pod, Sta 4 (centrline) usually clean but could carry the AN/ALQ-164 jammer pod. Gun pods or strakes were carried with strakes being the most common.

Later (about 2008/09) configs saw the Litening pod moving to Sta 4 and with GBU-54's on Sta 3 & 5.

The number 2 aircraft in the flight wouldn't carry a pod and had EFT's on Sta 3 & 5 and GBU's on Sta 2 & 6.

Cheers,
Rich
