Hawker Siddeley Harrier GR.3
British aircraft manufacturer Hawker Siddeley designed and built the Hawker Siddeley Harrier fighter plane for the Royal Air Force in the 1960s. This was the first time the concept of vertical/short take-off and landing had been successfully applied during the early years of the aviation industry. Nevertheless, this was the first one to work. It has placed an order for the GR.1 and GR.3 models, which will be delivered over the next few years to the Royal Air Force (RAF). A modified AV-8 was also used by the US Marine Corps until the 1970s, when it was retired. The 46-foot length and 25-foot wingspan of this single-seat, single-engine jet were impressive. Design credits go to British firm Hawker Siddeley. It had a Rolls-Royce Pegasus 103 turbofan as its source of power. The aircraft had four vertical takeoff and landing puffer jets installed in the tail, nose, and wingtips. For the first time in aviation history, a V/STOL aircraft did not require extensive runways or other ground infrastructure to be built during its development. During the Falklands War, it played a pivotal role. It was finally retired by the Royal Air Force in 2011. There are a few apartments available for purchase on the open market.
Boeing F/A-18 Hornet
Don Kirlin, an Illinois real estate agent and pilot, purchased not one, but many squadrons of surplus Boeing F/A-18 Hornets from the Royal Australian Air Force, according to the AP. Kirlin is a real estate agent and a pilot from Illinois. When enlisting the help of an enemy country’s air force, the US frequently used this configuration. There will be approximately $5 million in cash invested in each unit, according to the current estimates.
