Avro Arrow Plane (functional)

This is my second mod. It is a functional model of the CF-105 Arrow – arguably Canada’s most famous plane. The model is 5:1 scale in order to blend in with the larger in-game passenger jets.

Passenger Capacity: 200 (not representative of the original CF-100)
Model: 1,411 tris
LOD: 357 tris

The CF-105 Arrow made its first test flight on March 25, 1958. The plane was cutting edge for its time, capable of flying nearly three times the speed of sound at altitudes of up to 50,000 feet. The Arrow was designed to protect Canadian aerospace from enemy aircraft throughout the Cold War and represented the epitome of Canadian innovation. Unfortunately, the Avro Arrow program was cancelled by Prime Minister Diefenbaker on February 20, 1959 after just five planes were built, as the program was considered to be “too expensive.” Controversy surrounding the decision to cancel the Arrow program still exists to this day.
