The scariest-looking plane I've ever seen was a B-1 bomber at an air
show a couple years ago.  The matte paint job, and the ominous
plackard next to the plane casually telling us that this one plane
could level 30 cities with cruise missiles, the fact that this
relatively-small-looking plane could carry a much larger payload than
a B-52.  And the SMG-armed, beret-wearing APs stationed around the
plane to keep spectators from getting too close...Well, it was quite
a sight...
