How come no one else ever built an airframe as capable as the F-4?
>>29333656
they did it,twice they called them Hornet and Super Hornet
everything is cool as long you don't put pylons and weapons into them,or show them a Mig-17 picture
>>29333656
I'm 9001% phantom phanatic, but I'd say the Mud Hen is as capable.
>>29333656
I thought the frame was proof that anything can fly if you put strong enough engines on it?
>>29333656
Many did. Exacly what did the F-4 do that others didnt.
My dad fixed electronics in F-4s in Spain and Germany. Lucky bastard

The real question is, How come no one else has ever built an airframe as aesthetic as the F-4?

The U.S armed forces are just a lot bigger than any other force and has therefore inherrently more roles to fill. Naturally a U.S plane would then be pushed into many different roles. Many other planes could probably have been adapted to those roles of there was a need for it. That beeing said I agree that the F-4 was a great plane.
Other than that I agree with

Mirage III is indeed a good example.
