Is the F-35 better than the harrier jet?

Yes, the F-35 is alot better than the harrier jet. Both aircraft can do a vertical take off and landing but at this point, in the dog fight. The F-35 would get the harrier jet outgunned because the F-35 is much faster and more deadlier than the harrier jet. In dog fights only for harrier jets vs JSF(the F-35 stealth lightning) the F-35 would probably win the fight against the harrier jet. The Harriet jet does not have stealth capability like the F-35 JSF(joint strike fighter jet). The F-35 have stealth capability. The harrier jet travels at transonic speed while the F-35 JSF can travel at supersonic speed. The harrier jet can travel up 689 miles per hour but the F-35 can travel at 1,850 miles per hour faster than the harrier. The harrier jet carries bombs, missiles and even machine guns. Same thing with the F-35. The F-35 also carries bombs, missiles and machine guns so the stealthiness isn't compramised just to keep the F-35 invisible to the harrier jet's radar. The F-35 can see the harrier jet by detect the plane and also, it uses better aiming than other planes. At this point, the F-35 is the winner.
