Hello Jesper,

Here is an image of a 899 Harrier from the Hermes, sorry the quality is not that good.


In April of 1982 the Royal Navy ordered the white undersides of the Harriers painted the same as the top and sides (Extra Dark Sea Grey) The aircraft were brush painted and due to the quality of paint and application combined with the white background often made the Extra Dark Sea Grey appear lighter than the original paint (If you look closely you can see that in the drawing).

All pilot names and the first digit of the side codes were painted out as well. The underwing codes were also painted out except for one harrier (XZ459) The white portion of the national insignia was also painted by brush with Roundel Blue. The rear fuselage numbers were in black and four inches high.

I hope this helps you out.
Brian
