The Mirage G, the French MiG-23 and the J-8II

I like any variable geometry fighters, however seems like the MiG-23 stands in between the Mirage G and Mirage Balzac and the J-8II, what do you think about that?

The Mirage Balzac and MiG-23PD are quit similar to the J-8II, the J-8II looks like a half breed betwen a MiG-23PD and MiG-23MF Flogger B.

The Mirage G8 was even similar to a Russian project for a twin engine MiG-23 and the twin engines MiG-25 and MiG-31 with Variable geometry wings
