Basket,

Is that a TSR-2. Wilson owed the British aircraft industy a huge apology for that fiasco. Cancelling in favor of F-111 that were not upto the job and then the Phantom compromise that could not do the job of the lightnings etc.

Makes you wonder when Whitehall procuement will ever get it right
