Description :
The Harrier and VSTOL is the focus of this episode. How and why was the first jump jet designed/engineered? This video tells the story of an iconic British aircraft and explains why we don't have a new version of the Harrier flying around today. It started when the world was locked in a Cold War. With VSTOL aircraft meaning less reliance on large, vulnerable air stations. But that's just the start, the really interesting story comes later - when the US and UK began to look for a replacement
