The Avro Canada CF-100 Canuck (affectionately known as the Clunk) was a Canadian jet interceptor/fighter serving during the Cold War both in NATO bases in Europe and as part of NORAD. The CF-100 was the only Canadian-designed fighter to enter mass production serving primarily with the RCAF/CAF and in small numbers in Belgium. For its day the CF-100 featured a short takeoff run and high climb rate making it well suited to its role as an interceptor.
