lets look beyond the hardware.......2007-06-27
A fascinating work, but it would be really good to look at policy, domestic AND international, and fiscal issues alongside the technical ones when looking at why certain projects were canceled. TSR-2 still rankles, especially when the F-111 was effectively forced down Britain's (& Australia's) throat by the US. Still, its great data for the historians.
