You may own a de-militarized fighter jet. To fly it, you'll need FAA approval (and it'll have to be inspected and made US-air worthy). You'll have to follow all of the rules for general aviation (as if you were in a Cessna), and then more. To actually pilot these planes, you'll have to be rated on them, which is the tricky part.
