I believe the government side of the Nicaraguan revolution made use of M5 Stuarts, M8 and M20 armored cars, and probably assorted other WW2 US armor. I think the Sandanistas used a lot of that stuff for subsequent monuments to the Revolution (and of course used older .sov stuff for their own AFV needs).
