The jets are supplied with chaffs as a form of self defence. They are also used to signal if a jet is in distress or if the jets communication equipment is non-responsive.
Gosh, how the world has moved on! Just a couple of decades ago this question would have been very surprising. The USA was the chief non-Communist nation involved in the Vietnam war.
US supplied the RVN with M41 Walker Bulldog light tanks, A1 Skyraider attack planes and F5 Freedom Fighter jets.

Because they were communist allies: Red China & USSR supplied North Vietnam with trucks, ammunition, SAMs, MiG jets, torpedo boats, tanks, and small arms. In addition, both the USSR & Communist China provided pilot training and jet mechanic training for NVAF airmen in their respective nations; the programs lasted approximately 2 years. Red China supplied the MiG17 and MiG19 jets, Russia supplied some MiG17 but nearly all of the MiG21s and SAMs. Communist China supplied T-59 medium tanks and T-63 amphibious light tanks while the Soviets supplied T-54 medium tanks and PT76 amphibious light tanks. Both nations supplied artillery and ammunition for all weapons.
Communist allies: USSR supplied MiG17 & MiG 21 jets, as well as training NVAF pilots IN THE USSR (a two year training program); SAMs (Surface to Air Missiles); T-54 medium tanks and PT76 amphibious light tanks. Red China supplied MiG17 & Mig19 jets, as well as training NVAF pilots IN COMMUNIST CHINA; T-59 medium tanks and T-63 amphibious light tanks. Artillery, small arms, trucks, etc. were supplied as well.
NVAF jet pilots were trained in Russia (Soviet Union). NVAF jet pilots were also trained in Red China (Communist China). Russians initiallly supplied N. VN with MiG17 and MiG 21 jets. Then later only MiG 21s. Red China supplied N. VN with MiG17 (J5s) and MiG 19 (J6s) jets. Soviet/Chicom (Chinese Communist) supplied T54/55 medium tanks, and PT76 amphibious light tanks to N. VN. All small arms, artillery, ammo for same, torpedo boats (P4 models) supplied to N. VN by Chicom/USSR.
Jets.
Viet Cong guerrillas living in SOUTH Vietnam; and war equipment such as tanks, small arms, ammunition, patrol boats, etc. from Chicom/Soviet Union. Chicom supplied MiG-17 and MiG-19 jet fighters (J5 & J6 versions) while the USSR supplied mainly the MiG-21 jets.
USSR/Red China. Contrary to popular opinion, by far, the bulk of the AK47s, grenades, trucks, PT76/T54 tanks, MiG17 jets (J5 series) were CHICOM (Communist Chinese). The Soviets quit sending North Vietnam MiG17s and concentrated solely on MiG21s; the Red Chinese supplied the only MiG19s (J6 versions) to the North Viet AF. So it looked like this: Only USSR supplied the MiG21 & only Red China supplied the MiG19 to North Vietnam. But both nations supplied Hanoi with the MiG17. Soviets supplied North w/ground defense weapons such as SAMs/radar, etc.
The possessive form for the plural noun jets is jets'.Example: The jets' pilots continually update their training.
