other than the venerable A10, there will never be a more badass looking modern military fighter than the Navy F14 & (USAF)F15 Eagle IMO. Strictly from a visual perspective. F4 is close though.
While I agree with you on the aesthetics (MOSTLY), none of those are modern.
I think this picture shows the most beautiful modern airplane and the most beautiful airplane ever built. Also, it's a GREAT illustration of just how BIG modern fighters really are.

I'd keep score cards in the aircraft with me. I think this particular stunt gets a solid 9.

Not to our Gaye Muslim Marxist president at the time- Barrack Insane Obozo! I am sure Barry was loving the fact that the incident made Iran look powerful with the U.S. hunkered down...

So the above styled aircraft should have engaged a strike fighter with what? their box lunches?

Not really. Very different motives.
But i could see your confusion when you're blinded by TDS.

When they first deployed some of the squadrons paint schemes were awesome. Then the word came down to paint them gray. It just wasn't the same.

The Lead Sled was the most bad arse looking jet fighter of all time.

He was too close for missles. Switched to guns.

Nice pictures. In order of appearance: Wolfpack, Jolly Rogers, Pukin' Dogs, Black Aces. Sundowners in the gray.

That's like a 15 year old boy trying to impress an 8 year old girl. Pathetic
I guarantee that idiot would have never tried that on an F-18 or even a 30 year old F-14.

Every kooky jingoist OT poster loves a good war... unless they have to fight in it.
