KC-135R. I have an emotional attachment to it. It was the first aircraft I ever worked. Its an old jet but still gets the job done everyday.

A-10 Warthog Live Fire

This. Anyone that has lived or hunted Kisatchie south of Alexandria near Woodworth has heard this sound from miles away as the A-10's from Barksdale and the old England AFB train at the bombing range in Kisatchie. Truly awesome and the favorite sound of any infantryman.

I gotta put the B52 way up there too. That thing is a salty tough old bastard

Eta: the total accumulated mileage of all B52's built would be a mind blowing number

Despite being a Navy guy, I think the most beautiful aircraft ever made was the XB-70 Valkyrie. Seeing it up close as a boy in the USAF Museum up at Wright Pat was very nearly a religious experience.

Despite a catastrophic accident & being obsolete before production...XB-70 is by far the coolest looking jet.
It’s just a massive, incredible design.
And of course...the SR-71/A-12 Oxcart close 2nd.
