The Germans called it the Widowmaker,or the Flying Coffin,..In the 70,s Hawkwind brought out an album called,Capt Lockheed and the Starfighters,..on the front cover was a flight of 3 Starfighters arranged like a flight of ducks on a fireplace wall,.on the reverse cover, the same 3 Starfighters were lying on the floor in bits,
