You are wrong about why the Arrow was killed. That plane was developed for a specific Canadian requirement. It was not developed to be sold to the US, although I'm sure AVRO would have sold the Americans as many as they wanted.

Look at how the Arrow was killed. Why cut up the prototypes and scrap them? Why send all that engineering talent to the four winds? Why not continue the project, maybe on a smaller scale? A lack of vision killed the Arrow, thank Dief.

I really don't want to get into an Arrow discussion, this is the wrong thread for that.

We should get into a fight about it.

It would let some Americans here know that not all Canadians are, “nice”. :)
