FD.2

Has to be the TSR.2 from those two for me. The FD.2 doesn't look particularly unusual, just a delta wing but the TSR.2 is totally unique shape.

True, but the TSR.2 is both a good Experimental AND Oddity so what more suited to this vote!

Two words: Tacit. Blue.

Other good choices could be Boeing's Bird of Prey, the Sikorsky X-Wing, the XF-85 Goblin "parasite" fighter, or the X-15. Oh, and pretty much any of the 60's lifting body concepts are pretty damn weird-looking.

I'd go for the FD2 out of those actually. It's always been a favorite for me.

Just a note, in the case of multiple suggestions by the same person, only their first one will be included in the actual poll...
