Which Country Has The Most Superior Fighter Jets In The World?

Which country has the world’s best fighter jets? Short answer and spoiler alert, it’s the country with the most F-35 Lightning II fighter jets. That said the best fighter jet for a particular country depends on its needs (e.g., the F-35 is likely excessive for the needs of a small country like Slovakia – F-16s are better suited). Note that little is known about the performance of the new Chinese J-20 Mighty Dragon so that jet will not be considered here (it may prove to be a great jet).
