TSR2
NICKDC,
Take a look at a Jaguar and you'll see a lot of TSR2; if that aircraft is anything to judge by, we're a lot better off without the thing, like most Wart on products !
A modernised Buccaneer, with cockpits designed by humans, would still be a force to be reckoned with, and isn't it surprising the F-35 is going back to internal weapon carriage ?!
I was once told at Boscombe that a loaded Tornado at high speed could just about reach the Isle of Wight from there...
I don't buy the 'loony leftie' theories, and IMHO reckon the TSR2 was a very restricted machine, at best.
For all tory lovers, take note that BAe Kingston had a full scale mock-up of the P-1216 supersonic VSTOL fighter in the late'80's, which made the F-35 look like a Sopwith Camel, but when Margaret Thatcher was shown it she refused funding - the Sea Harrier had already saved her political arse...
