I read that the US is looking at adopting a new prop-driven ground attack aircraft, and is thinking of buying them from Brazil or some other South American country. There would be a market for a brand-new WWII model fighters upgraded with modern radar and technology. I'm no expert - not even a pilot - but if you want to bring back a WW II aircraft for ground support I would think it would have to be the A1-E SKYRAIDER! What a beast of an aircraft!
