Avro Canada

Avro Canada was a Canadian aircraft manufacturer known for its innovative designs in the mid-20th century. Founded in the 1940s, it produced notable aircraft, including the Avro Arrow, a delta-winged jet fighter intended for high-speed interception. The Arrow was highly advanced for its time but was controversially canceled in 1959 due to budget concerns, which sparked significant public and political debate. Despite its short history, Avro Canada significantly impacted aerospace technology and Canadian aviation, representing a pivotal moment in the country's engineering and manufacturing capabilities.
