I agree; they are so ugly they're gorgeous! I do think the F-105 Thunderchief comes pretty close though with her sexy curves and shapely wings....Manny1943 wrote:Okay, I'll say it: Phantoms are just the sexiest fighter jet ever produced...

The Turkish Phantom looks really great!
I must say, cannot remember that I have never-ever seen a Turkish version of any plane what so ever !

Very nice, CL. I like that scheme. A shame really, but I guess they could not keep up with today's jets.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
