HHrAviation - Hawker Harrier Aviation
Hawker Harrier Aviation(HHrA/HHrAviation) is a fictional UK Military Aviation Authority (MAA) approved and regulated Defence Contractor Flying Organisation (DCFO) which owns, operates and maintains a multiple-platform fleet of ex-military aircraft.
With 2 years of operating experience, we now have a proven track record of providing turnkey outsourced solutions to Government Agencies and Defence Contractors for the purpose of Trials Support, Aerial Threat Simulation and Mission Support Training.
In an environment where governments and contractors have to balance ever-increasing defence costs with budgetary constraints, HHrAviation’s service offerings provide cost effective and flexible turn-key solutions to ease the task and budgetary pressure on the defence community.
Founded on June 26th 2022 at our former home Hoton-Stanford Airport, formerly RAF Wymswold, HHrAviation’s fully deployable jets are flown & maintained by Suitably Qualified and Experienced former RAF, RN & Test Pilot personnel familiar with both trials management and the latest NATO training, systems and operational requirements.
The HHrAviation enabling Solution – sorties dedicated to the bespoke customer tasking cost effectively replicating the majority of the support profiles once accomplished within the Air Forces themselves ranging from all aerial combat training to trials support, photo chase and radar calibration.
HHrAviation’s multiple platform fleet of ex-military aircraft & helicopters provides the capability to meet the limitless foreseeable trials and combat training demands.
As of the 29th January 2025 we plan to have fully moved to or new home at former RAF Cottesmore Rutland!
Unfortunately with our huge success has also bought the issue of outgrowing our former home at Hoton-Stanford Airport Leicester.
We were in the process of getting planning permission approval for a Type C Hanger but during our evaluation of HHrAviation's fleet we came to realise that even if we were granted permission we still wouldn't have the space we truly needed!
Inlight of this development we are conducting a farewell flypast by all our aircraft at this year's Hoton-Stanford Airshow
After the show we're going to be moving our aircraft, personnel and other equipment over the next 6 or so months to Cottesmore Airfield in stages.
More details will be posted soon.
Our stored aircraft are stored in Hanger X.
Should a requirement arise that cannot be covered by the performance envelope of the Harrier, Hawk and Jaguar fleet, HHrAviation’s suite of approvals enables it to either modify existing aircraft or source and certify a more suitable platform.
As a side note HHrAviation have signed an agreement with the Royal Air Force and Ministry Of Defence for the future purchase of Boeing RC-135W Rivit Joint ZZ664 once the RAF retire the Type.
We're not expecting and really are hoping that this will not be anywere near to happening but as a precaution we thaught we should strike whilst we can to make sure we keep 1 of them!
With approximately 140+ aircraft, HHrAviation operates the 2nd largest fleet of privately owned former military tactical jet & Prop aircraft & Helicopters in the world.
