NavalEye I stand corrected - I had thought the Italians were using a SK variant.

WEBF - the compound variant can be seen on Beedalls pages, as can the Italian AEW version. No idea how well it performs though.

Incidentally, as both the Spanish & Italians fly the Harrier II+, they are now far more capable than the poor old FAA in terms of air to air. The spanish even have their area AD ship in service although it appears to have been hit very hard with the ugly stick as it went down the berth.....
