It was previously usual for aircraft designers to seek a suitable engine, but this was an engine that sought an aircraft. The aircraft thatresulted was the famous Harrier that is still in front-line service with air forces around the world including the RAF and US Marine Corps. This book takes an in-depth look at the engine's original design concept, initial production and flight testing. It then goes on to explain how the developments and improvements have been made over the ensuing years and includes e 606 $aJet engines$xDesign and construction$xHistory 606 $aHarrier (Jet fighter plane) 606 $aVertically rising aircraft$xJet propulsion$xHistory 615 0$aJet engines$xDesign and construction$xHistory. 615 0$aHarrier (Jet fighter plane) 615 0$aVertically rising aircraft$xJet propulsion$xHistory. 676 $a629.134353 700 $aDow$b Andrew$01560409 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791028003321 996 $aPegasus, the heart of the Harrier$93826353 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02990nam 22008295 450 001 9910957408303321 005 20250609110643.0 010 $a9781137452696 010 $a1137452692 024 7 $a10.1057/9781137452696 035 $a(CKB)3720000000051353 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001533902 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12637608 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001533902 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11486298 035 $a(PQKB)11252911 035 $a(DE-He213)978-1-137-45269-6 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4000990 035 $a(Perlego)3489164 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4331406 035 $a(EXLCZ)993720000000051353 100 $a20151231d2015 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aPolicy, Politics and Poverty in South Africa /$fby Jeremy Seekings, Nicoli Nattrass 205 $a1st ed. 2015. 210 1$aLondon :$cPalgrave Macmillan UK :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2015. 215 $a1 online resource (X, 315 p.) 225 1 $aDevelopmental Pathways to Poverty Reduction,$x2662-6241 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 08$a9781349569045 311 08$a1349569046 311 08$a9781137452689 311 08$a1137452684 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 330 $aSeekings and Nattrass explain why poverty persisted in South Africa after the transition to democracy in 1994.
