Ah! That's a tough one for me! [:@][][&:]

I can't say I only like two, but if I have to pick it is the FW-190 and the Ta-152 series.

I'm most fascinated by the Me-163, Gotha 229, He-162, Me-262 and Do-335 variants.

For Allied, I love the SR71 Blackbird and the Eurofighter Typhoon "Raptor Killer."

WWII era- P38 Lightning and P47 Thunderbolt

Modern era- F20 Tigershark and Mig 29

never understood the name "Raptor Killer". The Typhoon's radar system can only pick up the F-22 when it is less than 3 miles away. The F-22 can pick up the Typhoon over 45 nm away...

First and foremost would be a P-47 thunderbolt. Massive firepower, super tough and VERY over looked by the mustangs. Second would be a F6f Hellcat just because it could out-class the zero in every way and turned the tide on air power in favor of the US in the pacific.

Don't feel bad I don't have any warbirds I've mentioned either. I do have the Fokker DVII and Me-108 though.
