Nota: Italia posee 18 AV-8B (16 AV-8B PLUS y 2 TAV-8B)
After the permission was secured from the Italian Parliament, the first three AV-8B Harrier II Plus as well as a couple of two-seat TAV-8B+ training aircrafts were ordered to McDonnell-Douglas in 1990. The trainers were delivered onboard Nave GARIBALDI in August 1991 at the US Norfolk naval base, while the first three single-seat fighter/attack aircrafts were delivered during the summer of 1994. Another 13 single-seat aircrafts were later assembled by Alenia Aeronautica in Italy and delivered to the MMI between 1995 and 1997. All 18 Harriers (16 AV-8B+ and 2 TAV-8B+) are now operational within the GRUPAER (Gruppo Aerei Imbarcati, 1st Embarked Fighter Squadron) at the Grottaglie Air Station, near Taranto.
