===Other countries=== Several other countries also introduced interceptor designs, although in the 1950sβ1960s several planned interceptors never came to fruition, with the expectation that missiles would replace bombers. The Argentine [[FMA I.Ae. 37]] was a prototype jet fighter developed during the 1950s. It never flew and was cancelled in 1960. The Canadian subsonic [[Avro Canada CF-100 Canuck]] served in numbers through 1950s. Its supersonic replacement, the [[Avro Canada CF-105 Arrow|CF-105 Arrow]] ("Avro Arrow"), was controversially cancelled in 1959. The Swedish [[Saab 35 Draken]] was specifically designed for intercepting aircraft passing Swedish airspace at high altitudes in the event of a war between the Soviet Union and NATO. With the advent of low flying cruise-missiles and high-altitude AA-missiles the flight profile was changed, but regained the interceptor profile with the final version J 35J.
