Which aircraft looks most like a warplane?
I've got my own views on this, unexpectedly.....but I wondered what others think.
For example, a P-8 looks like a 737- and that's not a warplane!
Some aircraft look evil, like the AH-64 for example- but we'll not count helos.
Which is the type that LOOKS most built to fight only?

Hmm. A Skyraider loaded with the 60s equivalent of 'shake n' bake' certainly doesn't hide its intent. Nor does its spiritual successor, the A - 10. And the H.P. Victor looks like something that would appear on any self respecting super villain's wish list, too.
That's my (off the cuff) two penneth.

I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could
F4M with 4xAIM4, 3xAIM7, 2x3x1000lb, SUU23 and strike camera.
Buccanner with 12x1000lb external and more bad news in the bomb bay.
B52 with 24x750 external and another 48x500 internal

I never flew it so I'm not biased but I think a tooled up Tornado GR1 in its Gulf War days looked pretty evil. It's what convinced me of my chosen career path.
A B1-B would give it a run for its money though.

The very first time I saw a Victor , it was a 214 sqn BK1a at Marham taxying toward me in the ATC section Land Rover and we cleared the southern taxyway on the dispersal just to the right approaching the Tower. Even though it was a tanker, it still looked absolutely fabulous.
I had a couple of years of almost nothing but Victors and the impression never diminished.
