AV-8 Harrier
In Team Yankee
Armed with an electrically-powered 30mm Aden 5-chamber revolver cannon and CBU-100 cluster bombs, the Harrier can deal with both air and ground targets. It has less fire power than the A-10 but it can also take on the SU-25 and Hind-D.
IRL
The Harrier is something unique its not really a fighter and can't break the sound barrier, but this hasn't stopped it from making a long and successful combat record. From the war in Falklands where French Mirage 5 were downed thanks to superior British piloting. The design was so succesful the USSR copied as much as they humanly could from visuals and public information but ended up choosing different engine configurations for an overtly dismal performing aircraft. Users of the Harrier are many from Spain to Thailand.
