(10 votes)
The General Dynamics F-111 is a long-range strategic bomber, reconnaissance, and tactical strike aircraft. The USAF variants were officially named Aardvark, their longtime USAF nickname, at their 1996 ceremony of retirement from that service.
In Australian service the F-111 is known as the Pig. The F-111 project was long considered by some to be an expensive failure, but it eventually produced an outstanding deep interdiction/strike aircraft.
