It is undeniable that the one aircraft to date which has triumphantly incorporated these attributes has made a huge impact on military aviation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt took less than half a century of flight to lift a heavier-than-air object off the ground vertically by the power of its own engine. It looked more like a prop from the Mary Poppins movie and was justifiably labelled 'the flying bedstead', but this belied its potential, and just sixteen years later the unique Harrier jet was entering service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn its most recent guises, the Harrier has evolved into a true multi-role aircraft, able to match the best of the world's existing fighters while retaining those characteristics that set it apart from every other warplane that has flown. It is a mark of the excellence of the combination of efficient combat machine, unparalleled flexibility in flying performance and an adaptability enabling it to absorb technical innovation that has seen the Harrier move from what many viewed as a technology demonstrator to a flexible, proven warplane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the first comprehensive account of the design, development and operational history of the Harrier and its derivatives to date, incorporating many hours of interviews with those involved with the aircraft from the outset.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter E.
