todays the eurofighter or F-22 but history has to be the spitfire

At the moment my choise fall on the Eurofighter and the Tornado!

But if i see how much victories the Me 109 got, my choise is clear.

Me 109 for all the time!

For me it's the McDonnell F-4 Phantom II. First flown in May 1958, this plane has been used by the US Navy, Marine Corps and Air Force in many different roles as well as being used by 15 other nations including Japan, Korea, Great Britain and Austrailia.
The Phantom II has garnered a host of world speed and time-to-climb records. It is the first and only aircraft ever to be flown concurrently by both the Blue Angels and the Thunderbirds. The aircraft flew every traditional military mission: air superiority, close air support, interception, air defense suppression, long-range strike, fleet defense, attack and reconnaissance. Over 5000 were produced and although F-4s are no longer in the USAF inventory, (the last were F-4G Wild Weasels retired in 1995) they are still flown by a number of other nations.

Same for me, if they do all that they are designed to do.

f-117 nighthawk

i love the F4UA1 - that's a legendary plane, may be not the best in air combat, but so nice

then, when i was young i watched the famous tv show "BLACK SHEEP", history of the VMF214 during WWII in the pacific, that's always a real pleasure when i can watch again an issue

I think that this was one of the finest all round aircraft of WW2, as a bomber it was superb, as a night fighter it was excellent, as fighter it was second to none.

maybe but oh well
