 Phooey. The mighty  US airforce suppliers were scared shitless over the 
 ARROW 
 technology. Thanks USA MIC so much for the BOMARC (mockup) , Lockheed 104 
 (simoniozed brick 
 with 50lb of lead in the nose, and single engine widowmaker), Northrop 105 
 (couldn't 
 bomb Gatineau from Ottawa without external tanks) and the F18 (cheaper to 
 keep100,000 
 traitors than fly to fly 10 hours).
