Chinese Air Force J-7C/D The J-7C/D (also known as J-7III and J-7IIIA respectively) fighters are Chinese copies of the Russian MiG-21MF (‘Fishbed-G’), based on examples obtained a third-country (Egypt or Romania) in the 1980s. The reverse-engineering was not entirely successful and as a result the aircraft was only built in a small number. About 50-70 examples have been deployed by two PLAAF night fighter regiments since the early 1990s.
