Gotta be a joint-ranking on this one; the Tornado F3 and the Typhoon. For the Tornado, it may not have sold well in the export market but it has done the job asked of it by the UK very well. Aparently the Fighter version of the Tornado was actually a result of a study by the British government, without the knowledge of BAe/Panavia! The only fighter I can think of to have true reverse-thrust capability (actually, having said that, I think the Viggen and Gripen have reverse thrust too). A real shame that it will be out of service in just a few years time. Loved seeing the aircraft do its flying displays, especially at the end when it does its low-level, high-speed pass, wings fully swept back to look like a paper dart and then pulls up to the vertical, rolling continuously to high altitude

. However, the Typhoon is more capable (especially in the agility department with its delta-wing and advance FBW systems). Again the RAF does a fantastic display with this aircraft...love the bright-orange coloured reheats from those EJ200s

I'd probably say the F-16 as well, due to it's great capability.

Although it's a little dated now, there was nothing that could be compared to it during the late 1970's and early 1980's.

	Cant be any other aircraft other than the F-16. What an aircraft, has the perfect combination of price vs ability, upgradeability, agile, and a good bomb-truck to boot.

	The best fighter aircraft used by the U.S. Air Force. The one that outclasses every fighter in the arsenals of most nations world-wide. The one that has become the symbol of the power, might, and superiority of the U.S. Air Force around the globe... The F-22 Raptor
