4.0 out of 5 stars lets look beyond the hardware, June 26, 2007

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: BRITISH SECRET PROJECTS (U.K.) (Hardcover)
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.

I appreciated the info brought out here. Things I wasn't aware of are typical of these series of books. Eventually they will all be mine.
