Worth watching - Even the main jet nozzle rotates 90 deg.Many thanks to Darcy (down under in Oz) for sending me this.

Bet the whole plane is controlled with super electronic stabilisers! The approaches, vertical landings and take-offs are just too perfect to be executed with big thumbs.

Pete,

The plane must be the JSF Harrier replacement. I gather it can be out-flown by the Euro-fighter but has better stealth capabilities?

Perhaps Mike - but look at how much they save by getting rid of the massive aircraft carriers they have now.
Suspect its down to $ in the end.
