Looking at those vapor wisps, I think I finally understand how a single-engined jet, with so much internal fuel, could have such a short range...

For those who didnt pay attention to the history channel
The Harrier evolved from the Kestrel, which was a joint venture
Great Britain & USA
Germany financed some research
And the French like always mingled a bit half heartedly
Bell X-14 / Lockheed XV-4 / Ryan / XV-5 / etc

The Kestrele/Harrier was designed and built by Hawker Siddley with no outside input whatsoever. Please get your facts right. The USA build them under licence.
