Definately not a Harrier or FA18.

Looks like a Mirage F1 but I'm not convinced. :ymblushing:

Edit: Could be an AMX International AMX. :)

Excellent find Mayfly. :ymapplause:

Oh and by the way Stevieboy is correct although he doesn't sound convinced, it is a MIRAGE F1, the clue is in the FRENCH DPM Camouflage uniform that the airman is wearing! :p ;)
