The harrier, a type of bird of prey, is capable of flying in all directions—upward, downward, forward, and sideways. Its agility allows it to maneuver skillfully while hunting, often gliding low over fields and marshes. Harriers use their keen eyesight to spot prey from the air and can change direction quickly to chase it down. Their flight patterns are characterized by a distinctive low, slow, and graceful flight style.

Normally they can't. But the Harrier can to a certain degree, as can helicopters.
The British Aerospace Sea Harrier FA2 variant can reach a maximum speed of 735mph; other variants are slightly slower.
