Right now, the F-22. It's so far beyond anything else out there, that nothing comes close. Nothing else is even in development that comes remotely close. The F-35 is a mess. The Typhoon, Rafale, Flanker, and similar fighters are all last-gen. The T-50/PAK-FA is laughable (the Russians are literally just making nonsense statements in the design specs) and is basically a Flanker that has sleek body kit put on it; it is decades away from operation, too expensive, and still inferior to the F-22.Also, several Unmanned designs from Bae Systems, and Dassault are better than the F35 and F22.
There's a reason it's called an Air Dominance fighter, not just an Air Superiority fighter. It's just that good; superiority doesn't adequately capture it.
