Yo bitches (I can say bitches in the text, just not in the title),  
 
Looking through the list of planes, I noticed there's a lot on the site.  Some are better than others while almost all of them have been in games.  You got the fighter jets, the bombers, the support plans, and everything in between. 
 
What's your favorite plane and why? 
 
My personal favorite:  The F-22 Raptor, AKA the closest thing to an X-Wing fighter, AKA the hight of American (and World) Military Power, AKA Unbeatable Jet.  If there was a battle of 40 of Europe's best jets against just one F-22, the F-22 would smoke all of them in minutes.  It's the Super Saiyan of planes and it's exclusive to the United States of America, no lie...there's a carpet ban on even giving a single bit of the technology to even the best of friends.  This plane isn't even allowed to be touched by someone of a different country by those who build it.

Jet fighters are just a myth.

As to be the Spitfire.   

I asked google what the best fighter was and it said the F-22 Raptor, so i guess i'll say that.

yeah. the F/A-22 is pretty sweet 
 
It's either that or the F-14 tomcat  
 
just because the wings are all kinds of sweet. 
 
or the VTOL Harrier Jump Jet... 
 
 
Or.......ishouldjuststop

I have to say the A-10 "Warthog." A gun with wings that can hold any kind of missile or bomb, how badass is that.

but then there's the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird...   
  
 
But then again, if this ain't shit hot I don't know what is

fuck you kaos 
 
now I have Fighter planes on my mind...

What did maverick drive 
that thing

I think the russian su-27 just looks *so* beautiful, so that!

" @Red12b: I'm tempted to pick up Ace Combat 5 and Zero

For whatever reason I've always loved the P-40. It's got a face painted on!

The SA-43 Hammerhead Endo/Exo trans-atmospheric attack jet. 
 

The F-22 is unbeatable because they're all sat in hangars in case they scratch the paintwork!  But sure, if you put an RAF pilot in it (which has happened by the way), it could probably take out 40 of (contintental) Europe's best fighters in a few minutes.
 
I'd probably go for the Vulcan bomber, because just look at it.  It's so fucking Cold War and awesome.  Also because of this.
 

A10 Warthog baby.
Butt ugly and covered in guns.

A10 Warthog all the way son
