Loved that plane, it just looked mean, and it was one of the first model airplanes that I ever built, later I built a F-16, a Tomcat, and a Mig-21.
Faster then hell and originally designed as a high level interceptor, somebody had the brilliant idea of taking a inherantly unstable aircraft and turning it into a air to ground platform.
It was also part of Canada's nuclear strike package and could carry air to ground and air to air missiles.
