Indeed.
And more so with any of the foreign types largely unknown to either CAA/MAA and operated by the likes of ATAC, Top Aces, Blue Air, Air USA, Draken etc (Kfir, Mirage F1, A4 Skyhawk, Cheetah's and F-5's) operated by these companies in the USA.
ATAC do have quite a number of Hunters though which they may well be keen to offload given the newer types taken on board since they first acquired the Hunters.
They are getting on a bit now though, hence why the US based firms have now moved to plentiful supply of various Mirage types and the F-5.
Hawks?
