The TSR-2 would be a wonderful strike aircraft, years before the Tornado. A fantastic and very modern aircraft in his time with great international sales opportunities. A tragic and political mistake from Labourist Party and his crussade against British aerospace industry.

 

The " cheapper and better US fighters " laborist said proved to be inferior in some aspects to the TSR-2 ( Phantom clear inferior or F-111UK more expensive and a nightmare of failures in his early career ).

 

This was a lost opportunity to the RAF to achive a great attack fighter years ahead of the Tornado, better than the Buccaner or the Canberra in ground attack role, and 100% british.

Holy Moly! Those SAM pictures are HOT. I have a question regarding the missiles. How come the other missles don't egnite when the first rocket boost away?

To whom it may concern,

Thank you for you patience.

 

 

Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true..

Very fast plane!

 

Designed in '50s as a Canberra succesor TSR-2 was designed as a low level supersonic penetration precision strike aircraft capable of recon too in case of Cold War starts heating up!

 

It was cancelled by RAF in favour of cheaper and more maintainable F-111!

Low level interdiction = small wing = small turbulence = nice fly.

What's up the the nose part?

 

They were thinking how passenger aircraft are boringly similar, so they did something about it :D

Never forget that World War III was not Cold for most of us.
