The last cool plane was the B2. F22 looks retarded from front. but i do admit it looks decent from the top.
The F35 looks like the typical amerifat. Like a fat midget.
When will USA make great planes again? Also Chinese camo is sick. americans also need to change that retarded stealth paint job. looks like some retarded anime plane. not at all manly.

The Americans can make cool looking shit. But it's better when they make shit that just looks like it gets the job done.

The f35 does look retarded, but the F22 is the sexiest plane in history bar none

5th gen looks:
YF-23 > F-22 > PAK-FA > J-20 > F-35

For a long time, aeronautical engineers operated on the adage: if it looks good, it flies good. Meaning, sleek looking planes are inherently fast. You see this in biology too e.g. a hawk vs a chicken. Previously, designers wanted planes to be as stable as they can be and the aerodynamically sleek designs, are. But with the advent of fly by wire, purpose-designed instability (for better maneuvering) and stealth (straight, angled panels), Western designers had the LUXURY to ignore the old adage. Russian designers are still constrained by the old rules and that's why they still have to design sleek good looking planes.

Holy fuck, I'm so tired of F-35 meme hate. In 20 years from now it will be known as one of the most successful multirole planes every built. You fucking fags.

you mean
f-22 > f-35

That is not mutually exclusive to being the least good looking 5th gen fighter. I don't think it is a bad looking plane. It just isn't as slick looking as the others.

Swap J-20 and F-35. The J-20 looks cool from some angles and awkward from others. The F-35 is slick looking, it is just fatter than F-22, and so proportionately it doesn't look as good.
