Is there any J-2/JJ-2 and J-5 (not JJ-5) in PLA service?
How many J-7 is in service? Does J-7E/G replace the J-7I/II/III?

J-2 is MIG-15, J-2,J-5,and J-6, are all out of service. Except for the fact that some J-5,J-6, and J-7 were coverted to ground attack UAV. All the old fighters/intercepters in service are early varients of J-7, J-8, J-8B/D. They are getting replaced by J-7E/G,J-8F/H,J-10,Su-27/30/J-11 and maybe Fc-1.

"The Chinese Shenyang aircraft factory built two-seat trainer versions of the MiG-15UTI, known as JJ-2s, but never constructed any single-seat fighter versions of the aircraft. Instead, the facilities repaired and maintained Soviet-built airplanes.

The first Chinese-built jet fighter to enter service were license-built copies of the MiG-15’s successor, the MiG-17 Fresco. Designated the J-5, the Chinese version of the MiG-17 first flew on August 2, 1956. Trainer aircraft, designated JJ-5s, appeared nearly ten years later. In all, 767 J-5 fighters and 1,061 JJ-5 trainers were built in China."

J-2 = MiG-15
J-5 = MiG-17
J-6 = MiG-19
Q-5 = Based on MiG-19
J-7 = MiG-21

Globalsecurity's estimates on PLAAF inventory:

You can fly one for $2,300 USD/hour, but only if you have a pilot's license and meet requirements.
