Book Description
"Aerospace history is a fascinating subject. However, what is genuinely intriguing is an examination of those twists and turns of fate, sometimes referred to as, "what might have been." New aeronautical designs are often developed in response to a particular need for which the government may ask industry for input. Yet, in the many attempts to achieve a viable product, even the competition winners do not always survive, and are subsequently cancelled for poor performance, not meeting schedule milestones, budgetary pressures or political intrigue. Each aircraft requires very advanced thinking in aerodynamics, materials, manufacturing techniques, training and logistics and where some of thes advances were long contemplated by designers...forced by the rapid advance of science and warfare. Imposing their will upon the instincts and the experience of their military subordinates,...politicians often seal the fate of promising contenders. Project Terminated provides a succinct, accurate assessment of the development of the" aircraft that did not survive the obstacles, "analyzing technical and political challenges and their solutions. Combined with the concept of how these remarkable aircraft would have appeared in operational use, and illustrated throughout with over 250 photographs and drawings, Project Terminated provides an enticing look both at the past and the future." --Excerpted from back cover.
