Yes this is a Harrier Jet although I can’t see any country markings on it. This jet is the mainstay of the Royal Navy’s carrier fleet but will soon be replaced with the Lockheed-Martin JSF. Also it’s not a true VTOL since when loaded with arms it can’t take of vertically and so is a STOVL.
it is a AV-8 (not sure what variant) belonging to the USMC. You can tell from the color and the markings on the nose/tail as well as the airframe. The Brits/Indians (the other users of the Harrier) have no such markings and they use the Sea Harrier which has slight structural differences.
For most of USS Tarawa’s 05-06 deployment I was the gun mount captain of a gun mount located right under spot 7 and a half, which is where harriers (among other things) landed. These fuckers are LOUD.

Seconds before it loses control and crashes…. The Harrier has just a horrific safety record.
