Harrier?

Driving up the A303 yesterday I saw what looked like a Harrier zipping around Boscombe Down. Is there/are there Harriers still in use there?

I am open to be corrected but I think the US Marine corps,India and Italy still operate the AV-8B so may be some sort of Joint OP or research going on.

Thanks.

I believe the Thai Navy was/is also another operator.

Don't know but I can only presume that ETPS at Boscombe still do trials with one or two.

That was my first thought too.
