Is it just me, or is the F35 the ugliest brick ****-house cum dustcart that ever graced the skies?
Unlovely from every angle.
I have to admit that it's better looking than the runner-up. It's not an ugly as the Blackburn thing that lost to the Gannet, or most Blackburn designs until they miraculously pushed out the Bucc. It's more visually appealing than either of the Fleet Shadower candidates, or the Transavia AirTruk, or the Lockheed XFY-1 or the Convair XFV-1.
None of those represent a high bar...
