lol, I know what you mean, it is pretty ugly (though I think that's why I like it!) but I just think the Lockheed Martin one looks too much like an F22, at least the Boeing one was a bit different

Don't get me wrong I do like the F22 but it almost seems a bit lazy on the park of LM that they couldn't change it a bit. And it's not as though all their attention was on the VTOL system as even that had to be extensively modded after the original design, that fan behind the cockpit was added later on after everyone said it would hover with just the rear nozzle lol.
