Joes= Its gotta be the "Skystriker". I loved this plane when I was a kid, and wish I still had it. Loved it so much, I flew it most of the time in "Ace Combat 6". I also realized how limited this plane is to the current powerhouse F-22 Raptor. Which is my second fav, the "Thunderwing".

Cobras= The "Condor", never had one but it looks cool as all heck. Second is the "Nightraven". Look up the specs on the SR-71 "blackbird" and you won't be able to resist being a fan of this plane. Developed in the 60's and is still one of the most powerful planes to ever take to the skys. When missiles locked on to it, it simply outran them. IT. OUT. RAN. MISSILES. Only a handful were ever commisioned (I think 6). It was decommisioned because of extremely high maintenance costs.
