Has to be the Mig-29But in a close second is the F-16

Bring back the Concorde, cowards.
Viggen, sorry about the Gripen trying to sneak into the picture >o<
>>4786087cute hornet emblem
>>4786089>>4786087>>4786086Hornets are so ... bland. I mean, they seem to work for the navy, but come on! Compared to all other jets that they have flown - have you ever though to yourself "someday, I'm gonne be a Hornet pilot"? Same for the upcoming F35
The Concorde and SR-71; what ever happened? Captcha sux, quit using using "V" and "U"
Bump/dump
Sorry but this anon can't work with this Captcha.
Sorry for the reposts as I'm just sharing/trying.
>>4786675Good looking , pitty that it is a fake
KAI T-50 trainers
>>4786676If I recall correctly this aircraft was participating in a DARPA project on trans-dimensional propulsion. There was an accident, and both the aircraft and the pilot experienced a permanent symmetry flip. The pilot landed safely, but he developed serious psychological problems because his wife couldn't accept his new appearance. The aircraft survived, but it was quickly retired because the backward lettering on the indicators and controls were disconcerting to the pilots.
>>4787709That was an episode on the twilight zone, too
The veneralble Douglas C-47 "Skytrain" military transport, and the DC-3 civilian version.Longevity: been flying since the late 1930s.Versatile: Has been commonly used as:- commercial airliner,- troop carrier,- glider tow plane,- paratrooper jump platform,- Cargo (military and civilian),- Flies in all conditions - from Arctic to jungle,- Used in risky missions like drug trafficking,- LOOKS like a plane you could intuitively draw,- Won't be (hasn't been) scrapped after a few years of service because of obsolescence.- Safe to fly, or glide when engines fail. This is a Renaissance plane, useful for so much and still understated, quietly going about filling in all the detailed gaps the one-hit wonders can never do.
>>4787716It won't be long now before we see 100 year old DC-3s flying in airshows.
here are some F18's I took pictures of. sigma 150-500
>>4788394neat
>>4788398Fuck I need to get over to Finland and see a Hornet show before they switch over to fat amy or some other disgusting shit.We used to get F-16 fly overs here in my town in Norway, and one of the pilots went to the school that's right below my house and he always did a max g 360 turn over here in burner when they did coast patrols. We have since switched to F-35 and they literally cut the throttle now over the towns to not make too much noise. So fucking gay.
>>4789151we had a few SR71s stationed here in bongland and they had to take off on one engine for air shows as the noise would be brutal for the spectators. I think they also used to do that in active service to save on fuel.
>>4789151come see some. we have two good airshows in the summer, last time it was the turku airshow I went to. there were swiss and finnish F18's and a couple of F16's too, danish and I forgot which the other one was. we eved had a B1 flying over. we are replacing the F35's to but in person it looks stunning. all the smooth lines makes it feel really futuristic compared to the other jets that are pretty much a 70s designthe turku airshow was better than the helsinki one, but the helsinki malmi airport got closed because communists wanted to build houses there. last time I was in the helsinki show I took those pictures of the F/A18. I had some pictures from turku too but I had accidentally configured the camera to ISO 3200 so everything I took was sub par. still kinda guttet but shit happens. the finnish air force will always show off the hornets in our shows

>>4789524Good shot of Ursa Major, too.

>>4794632Very aestethic aircraft. Plus the reverse thrust is kino (couldnt find any high res pic of it).
>>4796245Reminds me of a sphincter
>>4795923What is going on in that pic?

pretty certain this thing was revived and put into service a few years ago

>>4806262What's that Flagon,your wish is to fly again?
>>4806228holy shit it's a kinzhal in the front
>>4806320its only for reconnaissance, its not a weapon as such. ive no idea how they landed them, i guess parachutes. the camera was really good i read, so they all got put back together and sent off. impressive considering theyve been sat outside for 30 years
>>4783651oh its so perfectly sleek i love it beautiful and just peak engineering so beautiful
>>4787709He would starve because of incompatible chirality with Earth food.
>>4786473Why are those tail tips asymmetrical?
>>4812082because you touch yourself at night

>>4812103but JJ is great!
>>4815104Forgot the text. Mirage 4000, never in service but was potentially kickass. Privately funded & didn't find buyers. Basically twin engined mirage 2000, would have rivaled f-15.

>>4801359How bad is the F-22 "situation" right now?
>>4815105Mirage III and IV. The IV is the sexiest nuclear bomber ever.

>>4820901saab37 Viggen
>>4787900I always thought that was a really weird looking plane, especially with that full suite of engines in the rear end. It just looks like it has an insanely huge amount of thrust for such a small aircraft
>>4821124Small? The Valkyrie was anything but small, anon. It was intended to be a deep-penetration supersonic nuclear-capable bomber fast enough to outrun intercept aircraft, so yeah, it needed a lot of thrust.
>>4821108Thanks.

>>4821124>small aircraftThe B-70 was so big the accident that took out one of the 2 prototypes entire tail and damaged the engine nozzles was not even felt by the pilots so when the radio call came up that there was an accident, the pilots assumed they weren't involved and tried to divert away from the planes next to them which caused the plane to lose control.

>>4843758Piece of shit.
>>4843780Looks cool.
>>4844655Something about the flight deck crew uniforms and how they just stand around awkwardly makes them look like low quality NPCs.
>>4835033why is the US going hard on tilted helicopters?
>>4853621Eliminates single failure point.
>>4853621Higher max speed and range than a utility helicopter, but serves the same purpose.
