    Okay but who made the original design?

    @Misha1004 Pretty much, yes.

    The Harrier is a first and foremost a British plane with foreign variations. Each of those variations both within British service and those in the service of other nations are all at least slightly different. The differences between variations varies, for example the biggest difference would be between the Fleet Air Arm SHARs (Sea Harriers) and the Harriers of the RAF. The RAF Harriers are more akin to the USMC AV8 type Harriers, or it may be more correct to say that the AV8s are more alike the RAF GR Harriers.

    TL/DR: They are all Harriers, but are all different. This particular Harrier is an American one, but THE Harrier is British.

    @Flightseeker This is the same plane, but it has a different name in US and UK. Am I wrong?

    @Misha1004 No, the British variants of the Harrier I were the GR1, GR3, T2, T4, T8, FRS.1, F(A).2. The British Harrier II variants were the GR5,GR7, GR9, T10 and T12.

    The AV8 Harriers (A, B and C) were American (USMC) and were not operated by the RAF or FAA.

    @Digi The British version is called the AV-8A Harrier. This is the American replacement for the above mentioned aircraft, called the AV-8B Harrier II. The information found on the internet. There have already been discussions about this :)

    All the people who say it was not used in the UK are wrong. I flew one of these things in the R.A.F 13 years ago so you are wrong

    The manufacturer of the aircraft was the United States. But this plane was developed by the USA and UK. Also this plane was not used by UK.
