Maybe if they changed the country from Australia to Israel the story might actually have some credibility. When the Israelis started building their own version of the Mirage 5, the Nesher/Dagger, it was believed at first that it was a reverse-engineered copy, without the aid of original blueprints/drawings. But now it’s often said that the Dassault did actually transfer the plans to the Israelis – without the French government’s say so…?:confused:
