SLAF currently uses the F7G, a Mig21 version built by China. One of these aircraft was recently involved in the air-to-air interdiction and shoot down of an LTTE aircraft.

The popularity of this single engined aircraft has led to its adoption and further development by a number of nations in recent history. Even Israel builds a version known as the Mig21-2000.
