Royal Navy's 800 Squadron page says "Each RN pilot faced the MiG-29 in
combat and found the Sea Harrier to be a good match for the MiG.
Thanks to the Blue Vixen radar the Sea Harrier won every time in
beyond visual range engagements and also scored some notable successes
when converting to the visual fighting arena."

Sounds like a sales pitch to me, after all they'll be looking for
someone to take them off their hands over the next few years.
