Aologies, Don - it was an "off the cuff" posting after having seen the news item; I hadn't even looked in the Encyclopaedia. I thought that some update work might have been done on this OOB prior to v4.0, so did not trouble to check.
I am astonished to see all the fast jets currently available in the OOB: I believe that no sophisticated equipment such as jet a/c have been flown by the Lebanon in many years, due to the troubles that have ravaged the country. Any such equipment has been in storage for a while.

Post No. 7 shows the depths the country has been reduced to - extemporised bombers from the Huey! Of all the fast jets in the "inventory" (i.e. storage) the Hunters were the easiest to return to service in view of their simple '40s technology.
So - as an unresearched glib comment: drop all fast jets from circa 2000, and re-introduce the Hunter from 11/2008.
