True, however what makes this plane is more advanced than the Harrier is inthe way that it creates its vertical lift.
When the harrier turns its jet engines to face down there is often a backwash of air that can cause the engine to suck its own exhaust. That sometimes causes the jet engine to go out. This causes the harrier to slam the last 6 to 12 feet to the ground. If only one engine goes out it is potentially fatal. as the plane will roll.
This fighter uses the jet engine driven fan (with a right angle gear box) that you see right behind the cockpit to create its lift. The intake and exhaust streams of the jet engine are still fore and aft so the engine has no problem staying lit.
