According to this page:
http://www.aeroflight.co.uk/waf/bosnia/bosaf2.htm
which seems to be based a book called "European Air Forces Directory 2005/06"
Serbia had 8 attack, 1 Recce and 3 Trainers of this aircraft as to (late) 2005.

@nfg495 "The cameras were in the wing tank?,..."
Here they are. I believe all J-21 Jastrebs in Serbia are downed now, but I am not 100% sure.:-wave

And here are lot of J-21 (all of variants) and G-2 too, all parked around MJV (Museum of aviation, Airport Nikola Tesla, Belgrade). First photo is a mosaic photo made from the window of the restaurant, and the other is taken before when airplanes were still in shadow and had a thin film of ice on them. Lot of them are in good condition, and in museum they say that this airplanes are for sale (?).
