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......

Thanks!
