  • I'm still very proud that it took over 40 years for the harrier to be replaced. But the f-35 is an awesome achivement, plus us british helped develop the engine system :)

  • America's need for a vertical takeoff jet was not a great as the UK's. American carriers are twice the size of British carriers and can support more capible supersonic aircraft. Still the Harrier did it way before we did, nice work.

  • 5:41 Pardon me

    but it managed to out do the Mirages which were way faster in the Falklands and shot them down with no loss to the Harriers....

  • Stiil so cooooooool!

  • just face it enbgland is the best at everything warfare related. :)

  • @duplex2411 You might want to actually read up on it before posting that. It's being primarily developed my Lockheed Martin, with technical and financial assistance from the UK, and designed to meet a specification of the USMC, Royal Navy, and several other nations. The UK is the sole "level 1" partner. And with everything we get from there, we'll probably tweak it ouselves once we get our hands on it, like the AH64s which America attempted to buy back from Agusta Westland after improvement.

  • SKYGUY03 ...Are you a child in grammer school?? Britain has nothing to the with F-35.

  • Why does the American get all the credit for the joint strike fighter when it was developed by Englend, Denmark, Tyrkey, the USA and a few other countries.

    It's not fair that the American get all the credit!

    Btw. The harrier was developed by the UK and not the USA as many people think.

  • @TheStig3566 It's a great concept for close support but I always wondered how practical it is for really rough, unprepared landing areas because of the danger that ground debris would pose to the engine. Anyone know?

  • Hey so i hear your gonna retire the harrier jump jet soon. I'll have one!

  • I thought the Yak-38 Forger was the first super sonic VTOL aircraft.
