What about Canada/RCAF working with McDonnell to produce a true multi-role derivative of the F-101 Voodoo? J79-powered (replacing J57), already a two-seat derivative offered (F-101B) and Tactical Recon derivative (RF-101A).

Perhaps, McDonnell appreciate the cutting-edge nature of it's F4H-1(F-4 Phantom II) and it's carrier-based centric design philosophy, see much more merit in promoting an outgrowth of it's 'known' Voodoo.....getting rid of the Aim-4 Falcon's and incorporating two or three recessed Sparrow Aim-7 AAM's from experience off the back with designing and building it's F-4H-1...., wing mounted Aim-9 Sidewinder's....


Just a thought....
