Pavelsu earlier posted two pics of the Chinese J-8, but they can't be seen, so i'll just post a picture featuring a J-8II Finback.
J-8II Finback is a very pretty aircraft, but is very outdated and can only match the F-5E Tiger or the MiG-21 (The Aircraft it was based on).

 

[Mikoyan]

Another Iranian Tomcat!

Two pics of Mig-21-2000, old Mig-21 but with IAI avionics. They affirm it is a deadly (and relatively cheap) fighter for the 21th century:

About the old polemic about the relation victories-losses for Mig-21 vs F-4 combats in Vietnam, here are casualties with names and surnames:

US Air-to-Air Losses in Vietnam

US Air-to-Air Victories in Vietnam

If you recount it you will see that are 87 Mig-21 against 41 Phamtoms which makes a 2:1 rate approximately.
