Im not much of a fan of shark mouth aircrafts (except for the P-40 Warhawk), but this Viper shark mouth "Gamblers" I definitely would do.

100% Agree with that - it looks good on piston aircraft with large chin intakes that actually look like sharks, but otherwise is looks crap - especially on jets.

I heartily disagree about shark mouths on jets…

LOL! Nah! Well okay, it looks good on the A-7 and A-10, the the others... To my mind, if there's no opening it doesn't make sense.

Oh come on… that underside shot of the Tomcat escorting the Bear? That looks most shark like! The color and shape…

yyyyeahhhhhh no. Ish, maybe. I mean, yeah okay it does technically look like a shark but, a shark mouth scheme is supposed to have a big gaping hole ready to swallow up the enemy and scare the out of them - otherwise it just looks like a big smiley face.

I think that you’ve consumed too much Marmite…

I forget shark mouths are great on F-4 Phantoms and A-10 Warthogs. F-14 Tomcats? Eeehhhh. A-4 Corsairs? I take it or leave it. Now Huey choppers? Oh yeah…. especially Cobras.

Actually - to be fair, I do think it looks good on the F-4E for some reason, and as Tom said below, the Cobra.
