Couldn't they have built something like the AGM-28 with American help?

They used the UK designed and built Blue Steel

Which had a fraction of the standoff range of the Hounddog.

The designs were for ramjet or turbojet missiles with 1000 mile range
- rather similar, but not the same as Hound Dog (which wdn't fit the V
bombers). But can anyone give me as assessment of their vulnerability?
