Haha Europe build a stealth fighter? Give me a break… Even Canada could build a stealth fighter before Europe. It is a known fact in both Canada and the US that Europeans don’t have the same worth ethic as we do, which is required to undertake such a project.
Worth ethic? What’s that? Besides, i don’t know of any Canadian stealth projects but i’m sure you have some references up your sleeve. A stealth CL-415 maybe?
You can’t cite this Lampire as any proof, because it never made it past the drawing table. If you had at least flown a prototype of it then that would at least show some capability, but an airplane which existed only on paper is not proof of anything.
Full aerodynamic tests, radar cross-section tests, at least two mockups built… it definately went beyond the drawing stage.
Secondly if this German plane was so good, why did the Germans completely abandon it in favour of the Eurofighter? It doesn’t seem reasonable that a country would abandon a design unless there was something wrong with that design.
If you would bother to read up a bit on what’s been written on the Lampyridae (or Lampire if you find that easier to read) you’d know why it got cancelled. But as a Canadian i’m sure you’ll be able to tell us what was wrong with the CF-105. Why else would it have been cancelled?
The fact is, Europe can only build whatever we North Americans allow you to with the level of tech we transfer to you.
Yeah, like jet engines. Or swept wings. Or rocket science.
If we ever decide to teach you how to build stealth fighters then you will have the capability, if we don’t… then you’re outta luck.
You’re really desparate to get some negative attention, aren’t you?
