   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).
