I’ve always found MiG’s designs to be good airplanes but aesthetically ugly. This one is no exception.

I would say the exact same for the A-10 Warthog.
On the flip side the best looking “plane” to me is the B-1 bomber.

They don’t always excel in combat. The earlier MIG’s were very good but never up to par with us. Russia has always ascribed to the tenet “Quantity has a quality of its own” which works if you have an endless amount of resources.

The Sukhoi stuff is dead sexy though. See the SU-27 for proof. It's not nearly the quality of anything we field, but I always the SU-27 was an aesthetic masterpiece at least.
