AV-8 Harrier REMOVE BEFORE FLIGHT Key Ring — AV-8B Harrier II “Remove Before Flight” Key Ring

Harrier forever — the jump jet on your keychain.

This AV-8B Harrier II “Remove Before Flight” key ring pays tribute to the Marine Corps’ iconic vertical/short takeoff and landing (V/STOL) attack aircraft. The “Remove Before Flight” format replicates the red warning streamers used on aircraft, creating a functional key ring that celebrates the legendary Harrier jump jet.

The McDonnell Douglas AV-8B Harrier II served the Marine Corps as its primary light attack aircraft for over three decades, providing close air support from both conventional airfields and amphibious assault ships. The Harrier’s unique ability to take off and land vertically — using vectored thrust from its Rolls-Royce Pegasus engine — gave Marines a fixed-wing attack capability that could operate from austere forward bases, roads, and the decks of amphibious ships without catapults or arresting gear. VMA squadrons flew the Harrier in combat from Operation Desert Storm through Afghanistan and Iraq, delivering ordnance in support of Marines on the ground. Though the F-35B Lightning II has replaced the Harrier, the jump jet’s legacy as a revolutionary combat aircraft endures. This key ring keeps that legacy close at hand.

This key ring celebrates the AV-8B Harrier legacy.

Perfect For: AV-8B Harrier pilots and maintainers, VMA squadron veterans, “Remove Before Flight” aviation key ring collectors, and Marine attack aviation memorabilia enthusiasts.

Jump jet forever — AV-8B Harrier.
