The Harrier was a British V/STOL multi-role military aircraft. It is a single-seat, single-engine jet fighter with the ability to land vertically, like a helicopter. The aircraft was designed and built by British aerospace company Hawker Siddeley (now part of British Aerospace). The Royal Air Force (RAF) first deployed the aircraft in 1969. Later in its career the aircraft was also used for air-to-air combat and air patrol as well as maritime surveillance.
