I have some sympathy with Whitehall on fighters.The RAF had had to have an injection of Canadair Sabres to give it modern fighters.No British supersonic fighter apart from the Lightning made it to service. I recall seeing a montage of NATO fighters from 1963or so where the USAF had a Delta Dagger F102, everyone else except the French had an F104. The RAF were represented by a Gloster Javelin.
