Pretty cool. I don't know sh!t about any of these aircraft, although I've always had a thing for the dassault mirage. Sexy airplanes.
Wow, it's amazing how similar the Yak-38 and AV-8 look. Thieving fvckers. I'm sure it's just a coincidence.

Oh come on Brett! Look at the aerodynamic fairings on the solid(?) rocket boosters! TOTALLY different.

We also can't forget the great Russian innovation in the form of the TU-4. Uhh, I mean the B-29 they stole and copied piece by piece.
They forgot the "No internal powerplant" category, which includes the CM-1.
That XFV-12A sure is perty!
That's ALL you can say positive about...an A-4 nose section, F-4 intakes and a supposedly awesome aircraft just made a lot of noise yet was supposed to have Mach 2 perfromance. The concept wasn't engineered properly before it went full scale and embarassed itself when it couldn't lift off the deck in vertical mode even with 30,000 lbs of thrust.

Thanks, glad to "see" everyone again.
Yak clarification
Depends on which Yak you are talking about. The Yak-38 deployed operationally and its replacement, the Yak-41 was never put into production, but did fly more than once between 1989 and 1995.

You seem to have an unnatural ability to spout completely wrong information as if it's fact. Please, continue to do so. We haven't had a 'knowledges' thread in quite some time.
