The top 10 Air Force Fighter Jets analysis is based on the combined criteria of speed, range, technology and armament. In addition the inputs of the pilots on the capabilities of the various warplanes during dog-fight training was also considered. These aircrafts are operational warplanes and are incredibly powerful.

These are the top 10 fighter aircraft in the world:



1. Lockheed Martin / Boeing F-22 Raptor (USA)

The most advanced and expensive fighter till date is the F-22 Raptor air superiority fighter. It is almost invisible to radars and carries a powerful array of weaponry.

The engines of the raptor allow the aircraft to supercruise over long ranges, while thrust-vectoring nozzles, combined with a triplex fly-by-wire flight control system, make it exceptionally maneuverable.

This aircraft is yet to be offered for export customers, even other allies and NATO countries. It is still number one on the list.



2. Lockheed Martin F-35 (USA)


The F-3, is a new multi-role fighter. One of its variants, the F-35B achieved initial operational capability with the US Marine Corps in 2015.

This multi-role fighter can perform on air defense missions, close air support and tactical bombing. It is compatible with the latest air-to-air and air-to-ground missiles.

The F-35 was developed under a Joint Strike Fighter program, which was intended to replace existing aircraft types with a common fighter. In the near future the F-35 will replace the AV-8B, A-10, F-16 and F/A-18 warplanes in service with the US military and to be exported to a number of countries.



3. Chengdu J-20 (China)


Chengdu J-20 is the new China’s stealth fighter. It was designed to compete against other fifth-generation fighters, such as the US F-22 Raptor and Russian PAK-FA. It is speculated, that development of the J-20 was assisted by the Russian MiG aviation company. Low-rate initial production of this stealthy aircraft commenced in 2015. First operational J-20 stealthy fighters were delivered to Chinese air force in 2016.

China has developed in the last decade and has taken a more transparent approach to its military programs.
