Between the Littlefield and other private collections and the amouint that were still in various South American countries I could see the Stuart still being a factor in Twilight War and post Twilight War battlefields for quite some time

"As we've discussed with the possibility of the Littlefield Collection winding up as THE armored division west of the Rockies, likewise I'm sure large portions of the CAF would be too tempting for the government to pass up on. Like pressing Shermans into front line service, any aircraft is better than no aircraft, so the notion of having a P47 plus a couple of P51s - and a huge number of prop-driven bombers - is a great advantage."

I would think that its more than a possibility - its the only real source of tanks and armored vehicles and more importantly trained techs and repair facilities in that area. And I agree with you on the value of old WWII fighters to MilGov and CivGov - yes they need aviation gas - but not as much as jets do. Plus keep in mind things like the Ozarks scenario. A single P-51 could shoot those airships and ultralights to pieces. And during that timeframe there were literally hundreds of WWII fighters, trainers, etc. still around in flyable shape in the US and Canada.
