HMS Hermes (R12) Hawker Harrier Trials 1977, Harrier GR.1 XV281, Harrier T.4A XW175 from RAE Bedford, Harrier GR.3 XZ138 and G-VTOL Harrier Mk.52 two-seater V/STOL company demonstrator.


 The trials involved four Harriers, two single-seaters and two twin-seaters, aboard Hermes, They were designed to look in particular at the ability of the aircraft to operate from a pitching and rolling flight deck at night or in poor weather. All four aircraft were given different tasks within a programme covering investigation of various stores configurations, handling on the approach, head-up display symbology and handling with simulated Sea Harrier centre-of-gravity locations.

The two-seat Harrier from RAE Bedford was used during the Hermes trial to establish whether head-up display symbology modifications would be required for the Sea Harrier approach case
