Both begin with the letter "V", both built like tanks and I've worked on both types too!
My claim to fame - I used to be a rivetter on the cockpit area of the fuselage when the B2 version noses were assembled at the Kingston factory of Hawkers, before they geared up for Harrier manufacture. Thats how I ended up with hands like those of the Boston strangler!
