Poll: meanest looking fighter jet ever built? - Weasel - 04-30-2016 Trying to get some life into the boards and we haven't done general polls in a long time so thought I would get one going. Pick the jet that looks the meanest/toughest to you, one that just looks like it was made for fighting; like a heavy weight fighter entering the ring, you see it and go "oh crap". RE: Poll: Best looking fighter jet ever built? - Scorpio_Rocks - 04-30-2016 I understand that you are constrained by the board to only 10 choices, BUT I find it strange that you include two aircraft that never went into production! Especially as you leave off some VERY pretty aircraft! Where is the F-16? Blackburn Buccaneer???? Mirage? <---- ALL better looking than the 10 you list (IMHO) Of the polled choices had to choose the Sea Vixen a beautiful aircrft!

Geez man, it is just for fun! Where is your poll? Some people have to complain about everything. It wasnt a complaint - merely an observation/discussion! wasnt that the whole point of the thread to "get some life" on the forum? ... RE: Poll: Best looking fighter jet ever built? - Compass Rose - 04-30-2016 My two all-time favorite looking jets are both from the Korean War. Grumman F9F Panther ![[Image: f9f-4.jpg]](https://www.theblitz.club/uploads/files/304/f9f-4.jpg) North American F-86 Sabre ![[Image: f86-19a.jpg]](https://www.theblitz.club/uploads/files/304/f86-19a.jpg)

You like the panther? I thought about it but it doesn't exactly strike fear into you. The F86 is awesome, but I didn't want to make the poll all US. RE: Poll: Best looking fighter jet ever built? - Ricky B - 04-30-2016 Since the poll says best looking I like Scorpios comment as a nice addition to the conversation. RE: Poll: Best looking fighter jet ever built? - Mr Grumpy - 04-30-2016 Sea Vixen for me, I might be a bit biased as I used to work for DH.

Especially as you leave off some VERY pretty aircraft! I see after reading this again I over reacted and I do apologize. I have been in a bit of a bad mood lately but that is no excuse. My poorly written poll question was suppose to be "which aircraft do you think looks the meanest, like it means business"; in non-fighter terms I would go with the A10, all aggression that one is. Sorry once again.

(flown by "Fighter" squadrons so isn't it a fighter?) RE: Poll: meanest looking fighter jet ever built? - Weasel - 05-02-2016 The A10 is a designated ground attack, close air support against helicopters. But if you want you fly the A10, I'll take the F18 and we can see who comes home :-) |
