Yes the Harrier DOES turn at a right angle. Do a search for “turns a square corner” on that link. Much less reason to take your word for it than someone who was flying a chase plane behind the Kestrel.

You're taking it waaay too literal. Vectored thrust will let it make sharper radius turns, but it isn't coming to a stop and changing direction 90'.
