I had to chuckle at that as friends of mine have had great fun rewriting Ada in C++ as it was just too damn slow. This was after they'd converted the code from CORAL 66 as Ada was the new kid on the block in the defence industry world.
Then there was Ada and poor old ariane, didn't help too much there did it? Still I'm fairly certain that the insurers wouldn't have batted an eyelid at the mere $356,000,000 payout.
