The F-16
Depends on what kind of Messerschmitt you mean... The 262 (first serial produced jet fighter ever) ... only German Luftwaffe. Same thing for the 163 rocket fighter. But if you're talking about the 109 (most famous of all of them)... well... German Luftwaffe (Austria integrated), Romanian Airforce, Finnish Airforce, Italian Airforce, Croatian Airforce... (those allied with Germany). And the Swiss Airforce (not allied with Germany - this mean's there have been 109 vs. 109 air clashes).

F-35 = JSF = joint strike fighter. This fighter is a low cost alternative to the F-22. Joint strike means it is designed to be used by all branches of the military (Airforce, Navy, and marines) and will be used by many foreign countries. It will be replacing the F-15, F-16, and the harrier. It has vertical takeoff landing capability like the harrier. It will be produced in larger numbers than any other jet fighter and may be the last manned fighter the USA ever builds. The future of fighters is unmanned due to limitations of speed and manueverability of having a pilot on board.
