25 years ago?  Would that be the proposed business jet conversion of Vampire or Venom airframes?

25 years ago, professionally, for me would have seen just having switched from the B-2 program to the TSSAM (AGM-137A/BGM-137B) program.

Ah, that makes more sense than that business jet proposal which always seemed a bit dodgy to me.
