“I get in trouble for saying this but I think if you add in some avionics upgrades to an F-4, F-14 or even a MiG-21, it can do most of what an F-22 or a Sukhoi-30 can do today. “

Not even close except for the F14.

I think on the MiG-21, the Indian Air Force would disagree:

I guess the F-4 might suffer a little by not being as maneuverable but it would make a better "bomb truck" anyhoo.
