  1. Ah, the F-104 Starfighter, I remember those! In my country it was the CF-104. There's one permanently mothballed at a museum not too far from my house. That awful airplane killed more Canadian pilots than the Soviet Air Force ever did. (Way more than zero, that is.) But we went all-in on those things and flew them until they fell apart. Imagine an alternate history where Britain made the SR-177 and we had the same licensing deal with them. Probably would have been a lot fewer crashes, even if there wasn't really a need to counter Soviet bombers.
