38.Black Mamba Plane
In aircraft design, the Black Mamba-themed F-16 exhibits an extraordinary mix of military accuracy and menacing looks. Perfectly portraying the deadly elegance of its serpentine namesake, this amazing paint job turns the already exceptional fighter jet into even more terrifying presence in the sky. The paintwork's remarkable attention to detail allows the black mamba's unique characteristics to be subtly incorporated into the aircraft's sleek lines and shapes. For those who have not had the honour of seeing these demonstration team F-16s fly, the combination of the aircraft's famed manoeuvrability and the distinctive paint scheme produces an amazing show. Maintaining the fighter's professional military look, the design team has effectively caught the core of one of nature's most powerful predators. Apart from their visual appeal, the dark and contrasting colours help to accentuate the aircraft's dramatic presence during air exhibits and demonstrations. The accuracy needed to carry out such a sophisticated design on an operating fighter aircraft reflects the extraordinary ability of the painting crew and their awareness of both military aircraft needs and artistic ideals.
