RAF No. 4 Squadron began operations with the Harrier on June 22, 1970, moving to Wildenrath in Germany with 4 Harrier GR.Is. The squadron grew rapidly and was soon a major component of Britain's Harrier force, and a key part of NATO in defending Germany against possible Soviet aggression. On January 4, 1977, No. 4 Squadron moved to RAF Gutersloh, but they have also been active in other places including Belize and the Falkland Islands after the conflict. The GR3 aircraft modelled carries a special commemorative tailfin with a stylized version of 4 Squadrons crest applied.
