It's possible to land a jet like that in real life and in the game.
However in RL, the pilots tend to avoid it because that's where the majority of accidents come from. Accident-wise, this jet is almost as bad as the OSPRY.

Hehe. But the Ospry is supposed to solve a lot of problems. When it gets out of all the testing phases in 10 years. The Harrier, which is what this jet is based off of burns up a lot of fuel during the vertical take offs and landings so thats the other reason why it's not done often.
