In refrence to the JSF, thank my eyesight that the X-32 did not win the contract.
It looks like a bloated penguin. @Ricochet I can see that thing at the burger king drive thru, melting the ford explorer behind it. Last edited by greggbzz; 06-26-2007 at 09:12 AM. |

I would have to say
1. МиГ-31БМ 2. С-37 Беркут 3. Су-27 and its modifications through 37 4. МиГ-29 ОВТ Of course this is the list today... as some might know, Russia has yet to reveal its definition of the 5th generation, so if it does happen I think that will definitely be on the top of my list. Even though the expensive F-22s and the so called JSF program have been tagged as 5th generation, they have already been criticized as still being a 4+ and can be matched by the airplanes mentioned above. -Sov

The Mig-29 has very nice lines, and the Su-27 (and it's descendants) were super engineering, although it always looked a little weird to me.
This is just awesome: |

1. F-15 Eagle
2.Suchoj 27 to 37 3.MiG 29 i have seen all of them on air show's. I used to live 100 km from polish MiG 29's air base and they always come over my place to practice dog fights- better than any air show!!!! Last edited by SVXBart; 06-26-2007 at 03:43 PM. |

SR-71a is a close second.

The SR-71 has to be the default king of all jets, but look up the B-58 "Hustler" supersonic bomber from the '50s. Very cool.

I always liked the North American XB-70 Valkyrie.
I am also very very partial to the B-52. Like fine wine, it has stood the test of time.
