Zep 0 #1 July 22, 2010 Just watched a great doc about the TSR2 , ( Classic.British.Jets.TSR2.Xvid.Ac3.MVGroup.Forum) (It's a torrent and where I live torrents are still semi legal) Reading between the lines you'll see how the Labour government and British royality in one foul swoop put paid to one of the what would of been most advanced low level fighter bomber of the cold war era. And how the F11 wannabe won out over a superior design. Listening to the story you'll see how inter service rivalry and brain dead politicians cost the UK the number one slot as military aircraft builders.

Tornado). (.)Y(.) Chivalry is not dead; it only sleeps for want of work to do. - Jerome K Jerome Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
