it's a CAMCO-Chengdu J-7 supersonic jet fighter. The J-7 was based off of the Russian MiG-21 and American F-100 Super Sabre, both of which the ROCAF flew and was a successor to the J-6. It was designed as an answer to new Japanese aircraft that were quickly outpacing the aircraft previously in Chinese service, the J-6 included as the arrival Ki-158 and A14M threatened to tip the scales in favor of the Co-Prosperity Sphere. Powered by a license-produced version of the Pratt & Whitney J57, the aircraft was a solid lightweight fighter aircraft and was at first flown by top pilots in the ROCAF and became greatly feared by their foes.

The J-7 was exported widely to the interim government's various trade partners around the world, notably Iraq, Uganda, Zaire, the Central African Empire, and Peru where it flew in those respective countries' conflicts. The last combat service J-7s enjoyed in Imperial service was during the East China Sea War, where the ICAF's vast fleet of J-7s was used to overwhelm the air defenses of Manchuria and the Tagalog Republic before it was completely-decimated by the more advanced fighters employed by the Koreans, Japanese, and Khurmusekchans. The J-7 was spun off into the J-8 and J-9 interceptors, that themselves were exported and bloodied in subsequent wars around the world, with the last J-7 in Imperial service being retired in 2019, having been supplanted as China's mainline fighter by CAMCO-Sian's J-13 and J-15.
