Best Looking Jet Fighter of all time?
 

My vote goes to the Douglas Skyray.

F-14 Tomcat gets my vote. Must be that damn Top Gun bias

I do favor the look of a twin engine twin tail design in general. Also really weird experimental stuff floats my boat.

F-16

I'm an F-4 guy - both the WW2 Corsair and the Phantom.

The two best paint jobs were when it first came out in the aircraft magazines. The Red, White & Blue scheme and the desert camouflage of pale blue and tan.

The Skyray looks good.

I've always liked the Vampire...

I still think that there are much better looking piston engined fighters than any jet will ever manage.

F-106 Delta Dart:

Prop-planes.......................the Spitfire.

I have to vote for the F-14. What a unique, beautiful shape, built for speed. I've loved it since I was a kid and read about how one of the first two prototypes skidded off a carrier and had to be recovered, one step ahead of the Soviets in 1972.

Easy one! From a sheer beauty standpoint...

F-86!!!!

The F-86D was all messed up in the looks department.

Thats why I did not post pictures of a -D model! :)

Agree with you and do not like that model at all.

F-5E

I failed to see the "jet" part of "best looking fighter". Sorry.

Now that is out of the way, I agree with Sammy; the F5 is very sexy in a female sorta of way, not intimidating like the F14/F15.
Thanks,
Troy

i kinda like this one.
