Riik	Uk
Rolli	Taktikaline streik/luurelennuk
Esimene lend	27. september 1964
Ehitatud	2

The British Aircraft Corporation TSR-2 ("taktikaline streik ja luure 2") oli tühistatud külma sõja streigi- ja luurelennuk, mille British Aircraft Corporation (BAC) töötas välja kuninglike õhujõudude (RAF) jaoks 1950. aastate lõpus ja 1960. aastate alguses. TSR-2 eesmärk oli tungida hästi kaitstud lahingupiirkonda madalatel kõrgustel ja väga suurel kiirusel ning seejärel rünnata kõrge väärtusega sihtmärke taga tuuma- või tavarelvadega. Teine kavandatud võitlusroll oli pakkuda kõrgkõrgust, kiiret seisakut, külgvaates radarit ja fotokujutisi ning signaaliluuret, õhust avastamist. Ainult üks lennukikere lendas ning katselennud ja kaalutõus projekteerimise ajal näitasid, et lennuk ei suuda täita oma algseid rangeid konstruktsiooninõudeid. Lennukatsete tulemusena vähendati konstruktsioonispetsifikatsioone.

General Characteristics and Role

The BAC TSR-2 (Tactical Strike and Reconnaissance, Mach 2) was an ambitious, highly advanced Cold War aircraft developed for the Royal Air Force (RAF) to replace the English Electric Canberra. Designed under the extensive General Operational Requirement 339 (GOR.339), it was intended to be an all-weather, long-range tactical strike and reconnaissance aircraft capable of operating at both high altitude (Mach 2+) and extremely low altitude (Mach 1.2) using terrain following radar. The project was controversially cancelled in 1965 despite promising flight test results.

kõrgus	7.32 m (24 ft)
Maximum Takeoff Weight	Approx. 46,357 kg (102,200 lb)

Powerplant and Performance

Engines: Two Bristol Siddeley Olympus 22R Mark 320 afterburning turbojet engines.
Maximum Thrust (with afterburner): 136.7 kN (30,610 lbf) per engine.
Maximum Speed (High Altitude): Mach 2.15 to Mach 2.35 (Planned).
Maximum Speed (Low Level): Mach 1.1 to Mach 1.2 (Planned, for terrain following).
Ferry Range: Approx. 5,000 km (3,100 mi) with external tanks and in-flight refueling capability.
Low-Level Combat Radius: Approx. 1,000 nmi (1,850 km) operating at Mach 0.9.
Takeoff Requirement: Designed for short take-off and landing (STOL) capability, aiming for takeoff runs of around 490 meters (1,600 feet) from rough strips using blown flaps.
Key Technology: Advanced terrain following radar for high-speed, low-altitude penetration.

Armament and Avionics

Internal Armament: One large internal bomb bay.
- Internal Payload: Up to 2,720 kg (6,000 lb).
- Weapons: Could carry one large nuclear weapon (like the Red Beard) or multiple smaller tactical nuclear weapons (WE.177) or six 1,000 lb conventional bombs.
External Armament: Four underwing pylons.
- External Payload: Up to 4,500 kg (10,000 lb).
- Weapons: Could carry additional conventional bombs, WE.177 nuclear weapons, or air-to-surface missiles like the AS.37 Martel.
Built-in Armament: None.
Avionics: Included an advanced automatic navigation system, Doppler radar, and the terrain following radar essential for its low-level strike role.
