whats the best fighter plane?

I am starting to learn how to prevent myself from going into stalls and still be able to maneuver fast and take the plane to its limits without going over them and ending up swimming in the ocean.
But I was just wondering if there are better planes to use for what I am doing.
figured it would be faster to ask then to go through the whole list one mission at a time.

I suppose you have to ask yourself how do
you like to fight.
Do you turn endlessly despite the aircrafts capabilities?
Do you never engage without significant height advantage, and fire only whilst diving, never turning?
Do you prefer sneak attacks or try to get head on shots hoping for the engine kill?
Is your gunnery to the point where you can line up cockpit shots without thinking, or do you prefer machine guns with their bigger ammo load supporting those low percentage long range shots?
Decide these things:
Where do I usually attack from?
Can I hit my target reliably?
Whats my country preference?
Do i like cannons or machine guns?
Do i fly looking rearward or prefer power to make sure things get smaller behind me rather than larger?
Once you've covered those general points, then you'll have a selection of aircraft that will do you well.
