So not realising that their own aircraft, built in their factory, had different sized fuselages and then building wings that didn't fit - hardly great engineering...
The original Nimrod was built by Hawker Siddeley in a different era using a different CAD system and each airframe was individual, how was BAE, a different company in another era supposed to know that? They took one frame and used that for the new CAD, any other manufacturer would have done the same since the original jigs and blueprints were long gone.
Sloppiness, bad design and poor QA all happen in any projects early life. Take Boeing and the 787 for example.
1.Years late over budget
2.Wrong fasteners used in the prototypes
3.Had to redesign strengtheners for the wingbox just before first flight
4.Fire in the avionics bay knocked out virtually all the aircraft's systems FOD was blamed.
To make out BAE are unique in making mistakes is a mistake itself, its rather a poor attack using the points you posted to justify the cancellation.
Considering BAE started with a pile of ****, they produced eventually an aircraft to proud of.
If your British you should be ashamed
