F-16 is too old construction in my opinion.  :P But a bit better than Mig-29.

I think the mig 29 is a little bit out of fashion. Also is the Griffen and F16.

I think the best fighter in your list is the F35 because it has stealth ability.

This is very important to survive today.

The Eurofighter is not so good.

The best russian fighter-bombers in the moment are the modells of the Flanker series:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flanker

But imo the most important point of all this weapon systems is the factor human.

Only an excellent pilot makes a jet to a dangerous weapon.

I.e. Arabs have had excellent jets in the different wars against Israel and the USA. But they loose terrible.

If you would have put in this jets well trained and intelligent pilots who knew the the tactics and would be able to master the jet, Israel and the USA would have suffered terrible.

The same is with their ground combat weapons and air defense systems.

That's because when you're 25,000 feet in the air and you have an Israeli or U.S. fighter on your ass ready to blow you into a million little pieces, there aren't any women or children to hide behind.

You would need about $150 million to buy one.

I am sure the Eurofighter Typhoon is the best fighter.

The F-35 is single-engined and probably a little underpowered for that reason. It is also not as stealthy as its big brother the F-22 raptor.
