Yes it was.
The arrow program was suddenly shut down and all
tooling destroyed.
They claimed the project was cancelled because
they wanted to spend the money on farmers.
later it was revealed that
KGB agents were working on the project
in key places and the rooskies had
the blueprints in nearly real-time.
Soon after that, they soviets came out with the foxbat
and it shared many new design details with the avro.
