A lift fan for use in short takeoff and vertical landing (STOVL) aircraft is disclosed and claimed. The lift fan is driven by bleed air from a main engine of the aircraft and may be controlled by an electromagnet. This eliminates the drag and torque on the main engine and reduces fuel cost and engine wear.
