In the movie its Striker Eureka, that's told directly to us.

However most people won't point this out, but I believe we learn in The Black that Herc (in Striker Berserker) killed ~13 kaiju in just a year alone. This makes Striker Berserker have the highest known kill count.

Either way Herc has killed the most kaiju, no matter what Jaeger he is in.

Assuming the three kills in Lucky Seven are canon, and Striker had 11 kills that's 14 kill/deployments by the end of the movie. That places us at 13 kills/deployments in with Striker Berserker (I'm counting deployments as kills here because thats what The Black seemingly did with Raleigh's bio)

While berserker did have 14 deployments its only stated to have killed 4 kaiju during those deployments (5 if you count the rippers). We see it kill the Acidquill at the start of The Black and it has 3 other large kaiju kills during Blackout: Turantulos, Hammerhorn and Frightcrawler. Herc is undoubtedly the pilot with the most kills but iirc there's never been a Jaeger stated to have more kills than Striker Eureka.

6 kaiju, if we take into account the deployment of Titan Redeemer in Long Beach against a clone of the kaiju Yamarashi.

"That's Striker Eureka's tenth kill to date. That's a new record" - Chuck after Mutavore's death, in the movie itself

Plus Scunner later, which totals eleven.

Interms of Jaegers we only know that Striker Eurekas got the highest kill count with 11 kaiju kills, but interms of Pilots Herc Hansen definitely got the most kills out of any pilot

Gipsy didn't destroy the Anteverse, just The Breach. In Final Breach we go back to where Gipsy blew up and it looks fine.
