A Lynx Mk8 from British Naval Air Station 815 leaves the flight deck of the HMS Ocean. The Lynx, prepared to intercept hostile aircraft, will have RAF Regiment snipers on board. In May, Lynx helicopters assigned to the Royal Navy and Army Air Corps flew practice maneuvers as part of Olympic Guardian, an alert exercise.

That Eurofighter is a beautiful plane. I always thought the Mirage III with the canards was the prettiest fighter but the Typhoon comes close. I also think the MIG 29 beats the F-15 on looks anyway. I also like the MIG 21. Being an American does not make me biased concerning what looks good. I think the Vulcan was probably the coolest bomber ever built.
