F-4 Phantom was indeed a gorgeous plane. An older guy that I know flew those in Vietnam. His comment was that it had a glide slope like a rock without power. His mental decision was that if the plain failed to respond to input, it was time to punch out...
The old F4 was a great looking aircraft for sure. Now if you want to talk about relatively ugly aircraft but only because of their necessary requirements Look no further the the Guppies.
It takes a "100 Acre Field" to turn it, but at a little more than 2.5 times the speed of sound it runs off and leaves everything we have today in the dust.
Also found another neat pic - Operation Desert Shield
