Fantastic plastic have released a 1:72nd Avro Project Y resin kit.

The design
In the early 1950s, U.S. and Canadian defense officials were extremely concerned with Soviet advances in long-range, high-altitude bomber technology. They saw a pressing need for a high-altitude, high-speed interceptor that could, if necessary, operate out non-conventional airfields to protect North America from enemy incursion.
Preliminary studies indicated the Project Y, aka, "The Spade," aka, "The Ace," aka, "The Manta," would have a top speed of Mach 2.5, an operating ceiling of 65,000 feet, and a range of 1,000 miles.
By late 1952, a Project Y mock-up at already been built, but soon thereafter the project was cancelled for reasons that still remain somewhat unclear.
