Well, I have a contribution to this thread: the HAL Tejas. Just... look at it... it looks like an F/A-18C, F-16XL, and MiG-21 all mashed into one aircraft.

I say it still good looking, except the refueling boom but  you need to refuel. But look at the tail for the smallest tail fin possible. 
Now I assume this is for radio / radar reasons.

Now that was an tiny transport with an rear ramp, guess you could get an car in there. That it's purpose, first thought was carrier resupply but this is air force.
