Me-323 (Gigant) and C-5 Galaxy, Large lumbering transports that scream size and transport capability. Also require a lot of maintaince work on their engines.

No aircraft of WWII said 'it's over' like the B-29.

I am not a fan of the 262's aesthetics. She just didn't look mean! Although, I bet she'd look mean flashing 30mm at your bomber zipping by at 400something knots.

I think the Messerscmitt Me 264 looks quite threatening, although thankfully only a prototype flew

Martin PBM-5A

Looks like a hunched bird of prey with the gull wings and the pug foreend with gun turret looks like its smoking a stogie.

I disagree on the P.40! I think the sexiest ones didn't have the sharkmouths.
