Operation Harrier

Operation Harrier is a 1990 action game centered on the famous Harrier jump jet, an aircraft known for its unusual ability to take off and land vertically. Players take control of the powerful aircraft and face combat missions involving enemy forces, dangerous environments, and the constant need to keep the plane from becoming a very expensive crater. The game combines aerial action with the distinctive capabilities of the Harrier, giving players a chance to experience a machine that was already impressive before video games started making everything explode. Missions demand quick reactions and careful flying, while combat keeps the player busy. Operation Harrier is a straightforward military flight experience with a strong sense of action. It is essentially a game about piloting a jet that can hover, which is already more interesting than most things that can happen during an average commute.
