Could be wrong, but here goes:

F-101,


Did recce over Vietnam, didn't it?

Gloster
Javelin,


Indonesian Confrontation, 1960s

Avro Vulcan,


Black Buck raids, Falklands

Handley Page Victor


Tanking in the Falklands and IIRC the Gulf, plus some "small war"
bombing IIRC.

Fiat
G.91,


English Electric Lightning,


Folland Gnat,


Used in combat by the Indians.

BAe Hawk,


Used by several buyers for COIN against terrorists / ruthless repression
of noble dissidents.

Tupolov Tu-22


Libyan bombing raids vs. Chad, IIRC.

Tupolov Tu-16,


Egyptian raids vs. Israel, and I think Iranian Badgers saw some combat
in the Iran-Iraq war.

Hawker Siddeley Buccaneer


South Africans used them in Namibia, and they also flew combat in Gulf
War '91.

Dassault Ouragen


Used by the Israelis in 1967.

Hawker Sea Fury
