Some of it is meant to be ominious to the enemy and stir a sense of esprit de corps, because after all, they are machines of destruction, though often used in defense.

Back then, 50's and 60's, they were of such. Banshee, Phantom, Voodoo, Intruder, Thunderchief, Sabre.

In the designs of the mid-1960's, 1970's they went to traditional bird or flying insect names: Eagle, Falcon, Hornet. There were exceptions like the Tomcat, or A-10 Thunderbolt II. Some like the 1960's F-111 was given "Aardvark" because of the long nose related to the sophisticated (at that time) terrain-avoidance radar which would fly nap of the Earth. Unfortunately, it became a beacon for Soviet SAM's (best flight is with no radar emissions). The EF-111 (electronics warfare) was named "Raven".

Soviet planes are designated by a system called Byeman which spits out a code, probably from a computer even back then. "F" for fighter, "B" for bomber, "S" for strategic missile.

Su-15 Flagon, MiG-21 Fishbed, MiG-23/27 Flogger, MiG-29 Fulcrum, MiG-25 Foxbat, MiG-31 Foxhound, Su-27/32/35/37 Flanker, etc.

B-160 Blackjack, Tu-26 Backfire, Tu-95 Bison. Tu-22 Blinder etc.

SS-25/27 Sickle, SS-18 Satan, SS-4 Sandal, etc.
