About this file

This document is a technical specification and weight analysis file for the AV-8B Harrier II aircraft, containing operational photographs, dimensional drawings, and detailed mass properties data.

The file includes ten photographs documenting the AV-8B aircraft in various operational contexts, including its current location on the flight line, front view, installation procedures, overhead lift operations near power lines, and six weapon station configurations (Stations 1-6) showing different armament mounting points with missiles and ordnance. Technical drawings provide radar dimensions and principal dimensions for the AV-8B 164549 and UP model, displaying multiple views (side profile, front, top, isometric) with detailed measurements in feet and inches. A comprehensive weight evaluation report dated July 15, 2015, prepared by NAVAIR AIR 4.1.7 Mass Properties Division, breaks down all major aircraft components and subcomponents with individual weights in pounds. Key weight data includes the Engine Installation at 3,739.7 lbs, Hoisted Wing Assembly at 3,002.0 lbs, Hoisted Fuselage and Tail Assembly at 8,805.2 lbs, and wing pylons at 588.0 lbs. The aircraft's empty weight is listed at 14,901.9 lbs, and with pylons installed at 15,546.9 lbs. The detailed weight breakdown encompasses all systems including flight controls, electrical systems, avionics (including AN/APG-65 radar at 466.4 lbs), propulsion systems, fuel systems, hydraulics, air conditioning, and armament provisions.
