I guess if there was a huge world-wide simple planes dogfight and its down to who can survive. Take fuel as a big factor and who can last.

Well, that is interesting, but because I can, they did try to create a nuclear powered jet engine ages ago, but it was only implemented on the Convair B-36 PeaceMaker, so it didn't seem that successful.
Also, i vote for Electric, even though it's quite difficult right now to make electric aircraft

I know what you mean. I really want more electric aircraft IRL, but not only is that not many people are actually trying, but that current batteries in bulk are too heavy for one thing, and aircraft that can successfully run off just electricity can really only fly for up to an hour as said batteries don't have a good enough power/weight ratio
I'mma go pull a Switzerland and be neutral.

I wouldn't say that.
Jet fuel (which isn't actually gasoline, it's typically kerosene-based, mixed with other things) is much more common than electrically powered aircraft, thus making it cheaper.
As to being easier to maintain, maybe....
