Anyway the Avro debacle was told in a CBC docudrama about a year ago. It represented that the Arrow was years ahead of anything else. BS. The F-102 and F-106 were nearly identical designs abet smaller. The Arrow was the same price as these similar designs.
The idea that long range interceptors were now obsolete, fighters obsolete, is also a concept that was not a factor in the cancellation of the program. US designers were building the same planform designs. France was just introducing the Mirage fighter.
