+Fates Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 well, it doesn't look too bad from that angle, especially with that paint job. here's another plane that got wacked with the oogly stick. nose job, anyone? LOL....I can't seen any means to retract the main gear, but I see a Nose gear door...LMAO...WHY? Quote
Rambler 1-1 Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 well, let's just say it wasn't exactly built by the Skunkworks. Maybe the nose wheel upset the delicate lines of the nose. Quote
+Gocad Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 (edited) Some say that the F-35 won just because of it's better looks. I'm just amazed the hippo can get off the ground. Ah, the X-32. To be honest I don't find ugly at all. Looks like a stealthed A-7 to me. Edited October 10, 2007 by Gocad Quote
JediMaster Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 The F-32 likely would've looked better than the X-32 did as it wasn't going to be a delta anymore. Quote
+SkippyBing Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 Mi-24 Super Agile Hind Err does the guy in the front seat get any use of his window with all that crap in front of him!! Quote
triplethr3at Posted October 10, 2007 Author Posted October 10, 2007 (edited) This is an ugly only post get that sexy chopa out of here Edited October 10, 2007 by triplethr3at Quote
tw7222 Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 I know this thread is old but, My fav for ugly duckling... TACIT BLUE Quote
SayethWhaaaa Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 Err does the guy in the front seat get any use of his window with all that crap in front of him!! Is that the South African modded Hind? Coz that thing is badass!! I mean it takes all the goodness of the hind, pimps it out with modern gear, new engines, composites, EO and IR sights and a larger variety of weapons... How could you go wrong?? Especially since it's now supposed to be fitted with an IR surperssor! Woot! I'll take 10! I mean meh, who needs an Apache? EDIT: I have another one for you all: and there always seems to be one of these shots... Quote
Viggen Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 I'm going to say it is a Tu-16, Tu-22, and Tu-128 that happened to be in the same room. Now seriously what is that ugly thing? Quote
column5 Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 Supa Hornet is pretty ugly. The old Hornet had nice lines but the stretching and bloating required to make it Supa ruins it. The XF8U-3 was sick-ugly and maybe the greatest exception to the rule of "it it looks right, it will fly." Quote
gerald14 Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 this is ugly!!! It has jet engines!!!!! Quote
Dysko Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 http://www.airliners.net/open.file/0064984/M/ It's a mistery how this can be allowed to fly... Quote
triplethr3at Posted November 5, 2007 Author Posted November 5, 2007 this is ugly!!! It has jet engines!!!!! at first glance I would bet tons to say it would never get off the ground. Flying that thing must be like flying a paper airplane with a boulder on it Quote
FOTF Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 Yeah, I gotta agree with C5...the super bug is butt ugly. Not a fan. I think it should be illegal to call them Rhinos and take away from the greatness of the F-4 Quote

I think it should be illegal to call them Rhinos and take away from the greatness of the F-4 Who's calling the Super Whorenet the Rhino? I think that the ugliest of the ugly is the Airbus A380. I mean people can call the A-7 a whale but I guess they never have seen this! Quote
FastCargo Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 Who's calling the Super Whorenet the Rhino? A lot of the Super Hornet pilots call it that. FastCargo Quote
Vampyre Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 Who's calling the Super Whorenet the Rhino? They call it the Rhino to differentiate it from the baby Hornets when it is in the pattern. This is to ease confusion between the two to ensure there are no foul ups when dialing in the recommended pressure to the arresting gear. I mean people can call the A-7 a whale but I guess they never have seen this! The A-7 Corsair was never called a whale... The A-3 Skywarrior was though. The A-7 was the SLUF. Heres a pic of one of the Hughes test ships... an A-3 with a Tomcat Nose and Phoenix missile under the wing. Here is my submission to the fugly bunch... the MH-47E Sh!thook The EA-6B Prowler The C-2A Greyhound And the F7U Cutlass Tomcats Rule! Anytime Baby! Quote
Silverbolt Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 well, the Osprey grandpa and he friend and he´s little canadian Friend Quote
Viggen Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 The EA-6B Prowler The C-2A Greyhound I find the Prowler sexy in its own special way. Or that could be becuase my neighbor flies her. And the C-2 I find to humble to be called ugly. Hardest bird to land next to the Hawkeye. Quote
JediMaster Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 There are some really ugly planes that never made it into service. I'm reading a pretty good book right now called Cold War Prototypes, has things like Convair's B-60 (an all-jet version of the B-36) and other really ugly ones. I'll do some research and see what else I can find. Quote
+Julhelm Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 The Société Aérienne Bordelaise A.B.21 wins this every time. Though I'd have to say the Su-11 is butt-ugly: It's an area-ruled tube with wings, dammit. Quote
ironroad Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 http://chamorrobible.org/images/photos/gpw...inia-medium.jpg *snaps fingers and places hands on hips* "Taste the rainbow darling!" Wait a min is this a post for the ugliest or the fruitiest??? Quote
