Held from July 21 to 27, this renowned airshow showcased an impressive array of military and civilian aircraft from around the world. The Harrier GR.7, a vertical/short takeoff and vertical landing (V/STOL) jet, is renowned for its versatility and agility. Its distinctive design, with the distinctive "Red Arrows" insignia emblazoned on the fuselage, stands out amidst the diverse lineup of aircraft at the event. The Harrier GR.7, manufactured by McDonnell Douglas and later BAE Systems, is an advanced version of the Harrier, featuring upgraded avionics and weapons systems.

The squadron's participation in the 1993 Royal International Air Tattoo demonstrated their expertise and prowess in operating this remarkable aircraft. Captured by the skilled lens of aviation photographer Peter Butt, this image encapsulates the spirit of the Royal International Air Tattoo and the awe-inspiring capabilities of the McDonnell Douglas/BAE Systems Harrier GR.7.
