Poll: Which stealth plane looks the coolest?

[Gimli43Orcs]

?

Edit: now with YF-23

 

[Chaotic42]

F-139

Oh sh....

Uh, the F-117.

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

There's no way anything beats the Blackbird.

 

[kyparrish]

sr-71 blackbird = hot

 

[CrackRabbit]

Got to see an SR-71 up close many years ago (abeit with its wings removed for transport) it was still one badass looking jet.

No :camera:'s?

Definitely the y-z plane. It has been and always will be my favorite.

</math joke>

the sr-71 isn't stealth just fast as hell, plus it flew very high so not many missile systems could hit it.

what makes it a STEALTH plane though? Just because it's less recognized than its x-y and x-z bretheren doesn't make it invisible to vectors or anything

SR-71 > *, ESPECIALLY considering how old it is.

How hast is it?

As hast as your mom?

 

[bunnyfubbles]

What about the X-35? Didn't it win the competition to become the JSF? (F-22 is a little pricey and not versitile enough for all our military divisions)

I don't beleive any missles could hit it.

SR-71

so badass, they have to ware space suits to fly it cause it flys at like 40,000 feet

almost impossiable to shoot down, i think it happened once

I think you are thinkink of the U-2 spyplane that was shot down. I dont think we have lost an SR-71 to enemy fire. Let me Google it.

 

[BatmanNate]

Blackbird

 

[Chaotic42]

No love for the Su-37?

 

[sciencewhiz]

remember, the question is which one looks the coolest. The functionality doesn't matter.

More like 100,000 feet. Commercial jets generally cruise around 35,000.
