Despite all of the drawbacks, she is such a beautiful lady for a war
machine (maybe that's just from a groundpounder perspective :) ).
I also liked the F-111 and the Mirage III but their beauty is somewhat

The utilitarian sparseness of the AP-3 Orion in low-vis livery is
elegant, too. I will miss their comforting rumble when they are
replaced with P-8's soon.
