| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central colorized vignette depicting a BAE Systems Sea Harrier FRS.1 jet aircraft in low-level flight over a turbulent sea, rendered with vivid blue coloring applied to the ocean waves, contrasting with the gold-plated relief of the aircraft. A second Sea Harrier is shown in plan view approaching from the upper field, conveying a sense of airborne action. The Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark appears to the right within the inner border. A decorative textured band surrounds the colorized central disc. The legend 'BAE SYSTEMS SEA HARRIER' arcs along the lower periphery, with '1 OZ 999 SILVER' inscribed within the lower portion of the inner border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Sea Harrier's operational career effectively ended the year before this coin was struck — the Royal Navy retired the type in March 2006 after the MoD concluded that upgrading the fleet was no longer cost-effective given planned carrier force reductions. The aircraft had served since 1980, with its most documented combat use during the Falklands conflict, where it flew from HMS Hermes and HMS Invincible without a single air-to-air loss.
Perth's commemorative silver program in this period leaned heavily on British military aviation subjects for the collector market. KM#227 sits in a broader run of similarly formatted issues from that cycle.
