Sorry, I can't figure out how to hang pictures on here anymore, but the best air-to-air fighter ever designed was the F-16.
The F-16 was sleeked down and built strictly with air-to-air combat in mind. No aircraft could turn faster than the F-16, meaning the F-16 would quickly outmaneuver any other type of aircraft it went against.
The same people who helped design the F-16 helped build the A-10. Same concept (focus on doing one thing well), just took it to the other extreme of close air support.
