Please read the next bit very S-L-O-W-L-Y.

There weren't 18 aircraft, there weren't even 6.
There were three.
They were
B.1484
B.1485
B.1486

They were three prototypes--Prototypes get built but production orders don't always follow--It happens in America too.

You have not one scrap of proof about any of this.
Why don't you post up some sources for your case or leave it.
Either you've got a warped sense of humour or you need help.
I know not which.
