And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

The British Aircraft Corporation TSR-2 was a cancelled Cold War strike and aerial reconnaissance aircraft developed by the British Aircraft Corporation for the Royal Air Force in the late 1950s and early 1960s
Canceled, if anyone needs reminding of their treachery, by the british branch of the Soviet State Defense Committee, a.k.a. the then labour government... (think pale pink socialists....). It took nearly 15 years from the TSR2 being canceled for a replacement to reach the RAF (the Panavia Tornado)..... it eventually became almost as good as the TSR2.....
XB-70 era.
