Just a thought:
Since the Harriers have those vertical jets...you could have the jeep sitting somewhere...then you see the distortion in the air...a rumbling with some camera shake...then the jeep starts to crumple....more distortion, dust, etc...then pan slowly up slightly and the Harrier is coming down into view...and hovers there for a few seconds....
