No Audio In a forest in Bedford, England, British aircraft manufacturers demonstrate the amazing maneuverability of their P-1127 jet fighter. It's a high speed, high altitude fighter that can land and take off vertically just like a helicopter. Aerial shot of land with a lot of trees. Air to Air shot of A strange flying object, doesn't look much like a plane from the distance. Low Angle Shot - Looks more plane like with wings but the nose of the plane is not the conventional round or pointed. It has what looks like a spear on the end. It flys coming to a slow mid air stop before lowering itself for landing like a helicopter. A cleared out field in the mist of all the trees. It lands vertically and then it takes off vertically. As it lifts up, it blows the grass around and moves the tops of the trees. The plane turns and flies away.
