Concorde - that's a pretty cool plane!
What do you class as large? I'd like to say SR71, it's not huge but a decent size and incredibly cool!

Nothing says "fk you" like circle strafing a target and putting howitzer rounds on it whilst having miniguns rattling off.

Its the one plane that will out-CAS an A-10 in my book

And as with the A10 but more so - only viable against an enemy who has nothing beyond rusty AKs to defend himself.
