Can't comment on all the projects you mention but I can assure you that TSR2's demise had absolutely nothing to do with the US. It was a victim of our own country's political ineptitude and was finally abandoned when the RAF realised that it could get a much better deal by purchasing F-111. In fact the VC10 was (to a small degree) part of TSR2's eventual demise; George Edwards was too wrapped-up in the VC10 to give TSR2 the proper attention that it deserved.
