a 1960/70s aircraft design for a VTOL LJF.
This aircraft would be able to use helipads, provided it has a hangar, and twice the capacity of the aircraft carried, (that means to carry 1 yak-38/harrier equivalent, you would need 2 helicopter capacity)
these aircraft also do not give the radar bonus that helicopters do.
The aircraft would benefit from the same tech that LJFs do, but have worse performance in, Speed by a significant amount, range by a significant amount, maneuverability by a slight amount, and reliability by a slight amount.
This penalty would not be active for the suggested AC/CC ship class, but should be active for AVs.
