I agree with the Sukhoi 32/34, the Berkut, the Saab Gripen and the Raptor, but since I was young and know about the F-14 was my most favourite one and with difference.

The second one I also liked a lot was the F-111 (maybe it isn't very sexy but had something special for me):

Most of them look sweet, but as retired Navy I have to say the Phantom and Tomcat Rule equal at #1
BUT my love of a better time tells me the spit, bf109, P51B-D F4U's Hellcats, FW190's and A6M2's are the prettiest

i personally love the sr71 blackbird

Off course the F-14's Tomcats, the Top Gun's best aircrafts ever ladies and gents...and my fav war propaganda movie....bam bam bam ..the only movie I saw more than 2x..at least 8..?!



And another one I just found out (thanks rattler):..great personality, stamina, bold, strong and surprising lines going on..very unique indeed...agent 007 possibilities...

To me sexy aircraft are the ones that have been proven in both flight characteristics and combat.

Is definitely one of the 10 and the fastest of all.

Probably at BVR, but if it got into a dogfight with a Eurofighter or Su-35 then the USAF will need to replace it real quick.

Sure have mate, and if I imagined it going up against a Su-35 or MiG-35 in a dogfight you might aswell compare it to a black belt martial artist fighting a 90 year old peace loving hippy.


The latter representing the F22, of course.
