A-37B Dragonfly
After the war, the USAF passed their A-37Bs from the USAF Tactical Air Command to Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve units. In the early 1980s, these aircraft were assigned the FAC role and given the designation "OA-37B". The OA-37Bs were eventually phased out and replaced in the FAC mission by the much more formidable Fairchild OA-10A Warthog.
The A-37B was also exported to Latin American air arms, mostly during the 1970s. It was well suited to their needs because of its simplicity, low cost, and effectiveness for insurgent warfare. Most of the A-37Bs exported south had the refueling probe shortened to act as a single-point ground refueling probe, or deleted completely.
Latin American countries that received the A-37B included Peru (36 aircraft), Chile (34), Columbia (14 originally, plus 12 reportedly supplied later), Ecuador (12), Uruguay (8), Honduras (15), Guatemala (13), and El Salvador (18). Super Tweets remain in service in some of these countries in slowly declining numbers.
