All Jet Fighters and Interceptors

Jet-powered fighters and interceptors from the first Allied jet fighter of 1944 to the stealth fighters of today, built for air combat, air defence and multirole strike work. An entry belongs here when the cited article names a jet fighter, interceptor or multirole fighter. It excludes propeller-driven fighters, bombers and transports. Entries are placed by what their own cited article says, so each one sits in the narrowest group its source supports, and the group page lists it beside the other members.
