British Aircraft Corporation Tactical Strike/Reconnaissance 2 (TSR-2)

The British Aircraft Corporation Tactical Strike/Reconnaissance 2 (TSR-2) was an ill-fated Cold War strike aircraft developed by the British Aircraft Corporation (BAC) for the Royal Air Force (RAF) in the early 1960s. The TSR-2 was designed to penetrate a well-defended forward battle area at low altitudes and very high speeds, and then attack high-value targets in the rear with close-in bomb runs and precision drops. The TSR-2 included a number of advanced features that made it the highest performing aircraft in this role, yet the programme was controversially cancelled in favour of the General Dynamics F-111, a procurement that itself was later cancelled.

@maydayfire

Lose the attitude; you still have to give me a SINGLE example of something beautifull Iran made (and if I'm right, you are Iranian).

Good point about Typhoon, it's not purely British.

True, not all British things are things of beauty (eg their women), however, if you want to see beautifull British things, listen to the Beatles, look at Lotus & JJaguar cars... And some Astin Martins.

Examples please of beautifull things from your country :-P

lol

euro-fighter is not a product of UK alone. UK is one of 5 countries involved in the project. I did not make any claim about Iran or what not. So get back to your vodka table and drink it off

@maydayfire

And what do you Iranians build that is so beautifull, pray tell?

The Mosquito is a beauty and Eurofighter is a beauty.

Not only that, but what it looks like isn't really important; it's how it performs that counts and when it comes to producing war-winners, I think you'll find that Britains record by FAR exceeds that of your own, maybe even that of any other country.

Are you just jealous? :-P
