Now, this is what Canada needs! Build our own fighter, one that meets our needs, and employ thousands of Canadians doing it. This would make me a proud Canadian.

As an American, I'd love to see this plane fly again with modern avionics.

It's about God Damned Time! Bring back the Avro Arrow and the TSR-2

This plane reminds me of the Panavia Tornado. Maybe the Tornado's designers saw a great idea in the Arrow?

I think as interceptor, there is no need to be stealth and this is where the Arrow designed for and strong at.

"If you kill the Enemy, they win"- I'm not worried about winning. Lets just make sure they leave me alone.

sad that this is one of the greatest fighter jet designs of all time that will never be put into production

I'm from the USA, and I wish to see the AVRO in the air. I know from experience what the DOD does to stifle competition to build overly expensive airplanes.

As an American all I can say is “awesome”!

is this new version going to have stealth characteristics ?

It sure looks beautiful, how about making toys and model kits of it for fundraising?

Now, UK... revive the TSR 2!

The UK could do with a bit more diversity in its air force, and we've worked with Avro stuff before. What say the UK gets in on this as partners?

Go Canada! This has very strong echoes of TSR2. What happened to that sounds uncannily identical. And then UK lost its aircraft manufacturing to the benefit of the US? Why? Sounds like power-plays behind the scenes to me. Does this sound familiar to Canadians too? Go Canada! Way to go. BTW just make sure the Chinese and Russians don't hack your data. Give Cybersecurity priority number 1. The more the diversity in the air, the better. Good luck and all the best, Rob.

This is exactly what Canada needs. Brilliant idea, I hope they follow through with this.

If anything the SR AAMs should be on the wings, not in the bay, as pointing them down like that, plus the fuselage, would mask a lot of the sensors FOV, not a problem for the MR/LR AAM, since it would be well clear of the aircraft by the time it ever went active, also launching it would not need to include pointing it down at such an angle, only lowering it parallel to the airframe.

So, how is the project progressing?
