One of the most famous aircraft in Canadian history, the CF-105 Arrow was a supersonic all-weather two-seat interceptor designed and produced by Avro Aircraft Limited in Malton, Ontario. The Arrow held the promise of Mach 2 speeds at altitudes exceeding 50,000 feet and was intended to serve as the Royal Canadian Air Force's primary interceptor into the 1960s and beyond. On February 20, 1959, the project was abruptly halted. The cancellation and subsequent destruction of airframes remains a topic for debate amongst historians and fans even today.
While the image displayed is of the actual product, the markings have been digitally altered to represent Arrow #202. |
