Air Britain two-volumes work on the Constellation

[Skybolt]

Just bought it. It's big, so I'll post a more informed comment in a while. Only an appetizer: it contains an artist impression of the AEW version with torboprops, wingtips jets intended to carry Bomarcs under the wings (no Bomarcs in the picture, though). Can't remeber the designation.. AW-2 ? ???

How many Bomarcs?

Two, but really the project asked for "Bomarc-class" missiles, and since it was a Navy program... maybe they were thinking of air-launched Typhons.
