Thanks Warchild for that historical background. It would be facinating to read old operating manuals for the airplane - intercept radar ops in particular, which I imagine are declassified at this point and available somewhere, and to a lesser extent IFF and gun laying radar. Though I think the latter two were developed for the C model, that was state of the art stuff for the day, and more detail would provide real insight into how advanced / capable the platform was. Does anyone know where to look for that kind of information?
