Due to the current game mechanics, we cannot model separate stages of afterburner. So all aircaft with multiple stages only use their maximum.

The answer above came directly from the FM developers. Just because something appears easy does not mean it is possible with the current implementation of certain mechanics. Datamines do not mean everything. Currently its not possible. That may change in the future, but right now its not the case.
The Harrier is correct in regular flight modes. Only VTOL has additional takeoff power for gameplay purposes to allow the aircraft to take off in VTOL with payloads.
As such the Harrier is correct outside of VTOL mode and the matter here does not apply there as its regular flight performance is correct.
No artificial buff has been applied to the MIG-21. As I said as far as it is possible to model afterburners (using the highest stage) we have done so.
The report will be reviewed by the developers first to see if the data is correct.
As I said above, when the report has been reviewed we will have an answer we can share.
