I think Harriers used to use that, but I haven’t seen a VCSL in over a decade.

Looks like VMA-223 or 231 (AV-8B) uses “Jump” from time to time.

Every fighter jet can be a skydiving plane once.

The official list doesn't include just "Jump". There's a Jump Air in Lithuania, Jump Run in Germany, and Jumper is listed to the US Department of the Interior (for smokejumpers, maybe?).

But yeah, a Harrier squadron would fit!
