Dang that's brutal.

Dang that's brutal. 

 

Yes, they also have not been killing enough radar dishes it seems

[MEC-777]

Yeah, the A10 is one of the most awesome military aircraft ever built - essentially a plane built around a giant gun. I've always been curious how it would fare in a dog fight. I know it's not all that fast, but it is maneuverable and all it would take is to get one quick bead on the enemy's aircraft and that would be it. 

 

The F-15 is also said to be one tough son of a you-know-what - able to fly with a missing wing as well. Crazy...

Taking out radar dishes aren't challenging.

If the A-10 lands a hit with its main gun in a dogfight... whoever's on the receiving end is fucked.

Are if they are part of a SAM site

[Fred Castellum]

Are if they are part of a SAM site

They want to take out the SAM sites instead of the radar dishes because its more of a challenge

My thoughts exactly! lol

I also love the MiG series, as it was the first aircraft to go above 30,000 ft

 

Also you can rent them for trips into space! World record height 37,650 metres (123,520 ft, 23 miles high)

 

it can also climb to 20000ft in 2 and a half minutes! , also can fly at 3,470 km/h, 2,170 mph

Mig SERIES? Mikoyan Gurevich is a design bureau, silly. They made aircraft ranging from simple piston fighters to the latest varianta of the -29 that could be considered a 4++ gen fighter, and even made 5 gen prototype, the 1.44 .

Yeah and they are pretty much all completely badass

You do realise MIG is a design bureau not an aircraft series.

First  MIG 1 :-

 

Edit :- Oopps just seen that juretrn has already said that

[ShadowCaptain]

First  HIG 1 :-

 

 

yes I know >< I was saying that they are awesome planes many of which hold world records, especially the more modern fighter jets

[Foxxer]

F15 + SU-35 + Mirage 2000.

[Admire]

Talking of weird paint jobs.

Yes I know it's photoshopped but let's not let reality...

 

Wescam is still the worst company name in the history of the world.

[chaozbandit]

MiG-29 Fulcrum just for the sexiness factor, but the A-10 Warthog comes a close second for sheet firepower. If we're going legacy on this one, the Avro Arrow wins it in my books. SR-71 and B-2A are runner ups despite their super niche roles.

[Simmytu]

When it comes to the aesthetics only. 

 

The Sukhoi SU-47 Berkut 

[lachyman]

I like the Suchoj T-50 PAK FA a lot.

harrier 2 and f-22 raptor

I would love to do that, imagine a sight that you'd see and also being broad daylight you look above you and you'd see the blackness of space. To me that sounds like a goddamn beautiful sight.

 

The MiG-25 Foxbat has an absolute maximum speed of 2,170mph but that will cause damage to the engines, the maximum speed where the engines won't be f**ked is 1,920mph.

 

Here is another one of my favourites, I saw one of these for sale a little while ago.

 

SAAB JAS 35 Draken, I love the shape of those wings, looks bloody stunning

 

 

 

 

Also come across some of these that are for sale, including a very nice Mikoyan MiG-23 Flogger for $260,000 amd a MiG-25 Foxbat for $1.8 million

Eurofighter Typhoon as in my profile picture (taken at an air show). I love when it does a performance take off, it's like a rocket! Just goes straight up. I am also in agreement with the F35 issue raised as well. Not just because I love the Typhoon and I don't want it replaced but also that the F35 makes no sense, the only benefit being VTOL which looking at some posts and articles doesn't really work that well.

 

So yes my favourite is the Eurofighter Typhoon
