Ironically my Fuck-Off Huge Book of Spitfires has a copy of the RAF's comparative flight trials between an XIV, a Mustang, and an Anton (as well as projected results for the Dora, which wasn't captured until after the report was written) in it :iamafag:

Was going to make a new thread to ask this, but decided to save forum clutter and instead ask it in here:
What are your guys' favorite military planes?
Mine's a tie between the F-14 (Seen here in Ace Combat 6):
And the F-117A Nighthawk (also seen here in Ace Combat 6):
How about this thing in vehicle size?
Or to keep things simpler and just look at something that's already out there, this?
You can give me the F-14D Super Tomcat anyday. :D
Tie between:
Hawker Tempest
and the P-51D:
Nothing beats WWII classics for looks, IMHO.
Othe favourites include:
Fw.190 A9
F8F Bearcat
F-22
MiG-15
Mig-21
F4 Phantom II
B-29 Superfortress. V Right there is where my grandfather sat. Mechanic & Tailgunner FTW.

And...
Who can forget the pacific favorite:
F-4U Corsair

Quite possibly one of the most bad ass airplanes ever created:

:ross:
It's like a more beautiful MiG-21.
Too bad it's a flying heat source.
Holy fuck that plane is beautiful.
