Perfect example of what my point was MEANT to be - not that
thrust/guidance
technology is not yet capable (It IS, I agree), but that energy
efficiency
technology is not yet capable of sustaining it for long. Take said
Harrier,
and hold it in place. Now hold it there for a long time. How long will
it's tanks hold out? Not as long as it would if the then converted it
into
forward flight. It's a fuel issue, not a thrust/precision issue.
