That's all fine and nice, except the J-7 and Mig-21 aren't listed with the same lengths, and the length of the J-7 itself is different with different variants.
Why don't you just use the JF-17?

The fuselage is the same the probe is different, some have lower probe

That ignores the bigger issue. There are discrepancies within the listed length of the J-7 in the sites you provided, in addition to discrepancies between the J-7 and the mig-21. Besides, differences in pitot length and tail length could all be factors. The better question is why not just use the JF-17. That length would seem a bit more certain?

J-10 is 16.43 (), and the J-7G is 14.885 () according to that paper, so the question is, 14.885 is with or without the tube.....
JF-17 is ~14m (, ). There is a variance though - . At most ~15m (49ft) with the tube.
EDIT : Ok, the 14.885 for J-7 seems to be WITH the pitot tube, at least going by this site : , .

The problem with using the J-10 is we don't know what the J-10B's length is.J-10 is 16.43 (), and the J-7G is 14.885 () according to that paper, so the question is, 14.885 is with or without the tube.....

EDIT: Though there is one way to verify the length of the J-7 though. We can use the JF-17's length as a reference (assuming that we know what that one actually is as well).

J-10B is actually slightly longer than the J-10A... We can't use the wikpedia number for it.
Does the 14.88 meter come out right when you estimate the length of the JF-17?

The value 14.885m shows up for the J-7 both officially an unofficially. Question was whether it was with or without the tube. Now I believe it is with the pitot tube.
When it come to the JF-17 OFFICIALLY there are 2 values for its length
But as a safety precaution, i guess one could use 14.25m w/o the tube for the JF-17
