A couple of "We wanted those but it wasn't meant to be"

 

Portuguese F-5E Tiger II. If i got the story right, they were meant to replace F-86s, and the Portuguese Air Force even had T-38s to begin training, but A-7s were adquired instead for maritime strike, since NATO wise the Spanish Air Force and USAF were meant to provide air defense for the whole peninsula with the Portuguese being responsible for  naval interdiction.

Spanish F-4E. Our Air Force wanted these, but we ended up with surplus F-4Cs in real life because we are cheap. A much shorter story there.
