I am in the dark, what has happened with the Harrier concept? I know
that the US is moving towards 2nd generation VTOL and that the Brits
were not. What are the Brits going to use on this big carrier if not
VTOL? They would have to develop something themselves or alter an
existing design for carrier use F-22/Eurofighter, which would not be fun?
