RAF Harriers come home after five year tour de force
After a deployment lasting five years on operations in Afghanistan, the Joint Force Harrier’s last remaining squadron returned home, Jul. 1, to their base at RAF Cottesmore in Rutland.

The Joint Force Harrier fleet is a combined Royal Air Force and Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm unit that first deployed to Kandahar, Afghanistan in May 2004 in support of the NATO led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF).
