I think it's just that widebody stance they have that gives them such a lumbering look. That's a loooooot of fuselage.
Anybody between probably 35 and 55 is gonna have a soft spot for the big fighter; it's just the era we grew up in. At least the A-10 is still fighting the good fight and the F-15 is gonna have a 50+ year service life when all is said and done. In this era of aircraft development and for a high performance fighter, that's unthinkable.
But the F-14 will almost certainly always be my favorite.

Yeah Super Hornets are called Rhinos on the boat. Ironically same nickname F4 Phantoms had as well due to size. We called Tomcats, “Turkeys” due to thier variable geometry wings. Like a cobbler strutting and spreading. [Reply]

I used to own 2 sports bikes about 15 years ago, and there were ridiculous fast. Then about a year ago, I rode a buddies R1M and he rode my street glide for a quick ride. Holy shit...times have changed. R1M was insane; can't imagine what an H2 would be like full out. [Reply]

I had a couple back in the day. I started with their predecessors above. The “ Triple” was explosive but had a terrible frame/ suspension for the power. You could literally feel the frame flex when balls out in a corner and I suspect that got a few guys. Got my attention and I’d back way off and guys on other bikes would pass, the out of the corner a locomotive hit its ass end and we’d repeat the series throughout. Continued poor suspension with all those bikes in my opinion. [Reply]
