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.
