Meh, I'd rather have the F22 or even the F15 or F16. My absolute favorite modern plane......................the A10. SEXY!!!!

Absolutely love the A10, if only the british goverment brought the F18 for the RN and F15 for the RAF and rather wasting money on the Typhoon for the RAF we would of had a much better air force. Of course we would of had to remove the ski ramps of which the harriers used but then I think the Invicible and Ark Royal were not big enough for the F18 to land on, but the new Queen Elizebeth class carriers will be much bigger.

And don't get me started on the Labour goverment cancelling the TSR-2 bunch of tossers!
