The AirLand-Textron Scorpion is meant for countries with no serious air defence needs. If the extent of your neighbours' air forces is random Cessna planes and UAVs, then yes, Scorpion is a superb choice. These low powered platforms make for excellent CAS and COIN aircraft too, especially with their low operational costs.
But if you do have adversaries with multi-role fighters, which is the case in much of Latin America and Asia, then the JF-17 is definitely worth considering, especially if your ties with the West is shaky. While Argentina did choose the Kfir, I do think they'll give the JF-17 another look once Block-3 rolls around the corner, and I believe Ecuador, Peru and others will give it a serious shot by then as well. I think the Eastern and Central European states have some potential too, at least if we can roll out a Block-3 using Western subsystems (and ideally engine).
