Ok, here we go.
1. It was designed to fit a specification issued in the 50's.
2. Did not fly until the 60's.
3. 3 main versions.
4. Only 2 versions were really used .
5. But this aircraft was used by more than a few nations.
Ok, That's whatcha get for a start......

No sweat, Zip; I know how it is. Well, actually, no; I don't. But I do remember about work... well, not really... But, I do seem to recall I didn't much like it. Now, as to the subject of this question. If it's what I think it is, you're a dog. And I'm not biting. <g> Thanks; Ernie P.
Sorry, Zip; but it was supposed to read "<G>" (grin), to show I was kidding. Thanks; Ernie P.

6. Twin engined.
7. While several were lost due to accidents, and at least one structural failure, only one was downed by hostile fire. (as far as I can tell)

Not the awesome F-15. BUT, like the F-15 this aircraft is still in service.
So...
1. It was designed to fit a specification issued in the 50's.
2. Did not fly until the 60's.
3. 3 main versions.
4. Only 2 versions were really used .
5. But this aircraft was used by more than a few nations.
6. Twin engined.
7. While several were lost due to accidents, and at least one structural failure, only one was downed by hostile fire. (as far as I can tell)
8. This aircraft is still in "front line" service.
Ok, That's whatcha get for a start......

12. Only 2 nations are still using this aircraft, and one is in the process of replacing it.
13. Which will leave one nation using it, and it is the nation that built them.
Ok, That's whatcha get for a start......
