Here is my take:
At some point there were over 30 Jaegers as mentioned in the movie, and probably more than that in the Pacific Rim universe. All of them eventually lost.
I was shocked to see Crimson Typhoon die so quickly, but again these were category 4 Kaiju, not 3. I think that Striker and Gypsy held on so long not solely because of their design, but due in part to their extraordinary crews.
So, to answer your question, if I had to chose for over all survival, I would take Striker Eureka. Striker has the best performance of all the Jaegers before her, but in the end, I would die in her eventually as the Kaiju were getting bigger, faster, smarter, and better equipped.
But if you would keep the category = to mark versions, then for Trespasser, I would want Chernov Alpha.
For Karloff, and Omnibaba, Axehead, Yamarashi, Knifehead, and similar sized Kaiju, I would want Striker Eureka.
For Otachi, Gypsy :) SWORD FOR THE WIN!!!
For Slattern ... just slattern, I would want Striker armed with a high yield thermonuclear warhead ... just to make sure ;)
Slattern + Raiju + Scunner, all hope is lost even with the nuke on board.
