As you know most of new aircraft replaces old one. I thought it can be good idea which aircraft replaced which.
As an example from Turkish Airforce:
F-84 and F-86 was replaced by F-5A and F-100 day light fighter-bomber
Whereas F-104s and F-102 was new interms of capabilities. But F-104s partially replaced F-100s
F-100 and F-102 and some of F-104 replaced by multirole F-4E Phantom.
F-104S, F-5s and some of Phantoms replaced by F-16C/D
Remaining modernised Phantoms will be replaced by F-35A.
