I know it never entered service, but by Christ it looks sexy - even on the ground....
 
If you look carefully....you can see a Lightning in this picture.

Great piccy Kryten - I wonder if anyone else knows its a TSR2

Is there anyone who really doesn't ?

I remember seeing a TV interview with Denis Healy, in which he could not /would not identify just WHO pulled the plug on TSR2.

Oh, if only. . . . . .

More than you might think TSR2 is a pet topic of mine. Another in house project scuppered by the Labour party. We never did buy F111's.

more TSR2 piccies and info here on this old thread

Same here mate - every time I go to Cosford and see one of the two remaining prototypes my anger rises....to think that they cancelled it because it was too expensive (yet strangely cheaper than tornado) and that it would never be needed.

I read a book that suggested that if it had gone into service then you could have based a couple at Port Stanley and they would have deterred the Argies from invading.....

Labour cnuts......
 
Thought i'd add some of my own.

The First one is from one of our many outings when i was in the Camera Bay at RIC(NI)

The next three were at TIW Det Kandahar in 2005

The last two were from when TIW went up to CQWI in 2006
