According to a profile article on Lance in the March Kitplanes the Mexican
Navy ended up with nine Lancairs. It's unclear if they were similar to the
Sentry or slightly modified L-IVs. I remember seeing some of them under
construction at Lancair back in 2001. One of the things I recall was that
they were adding hard points to the wings. Ya' gotta' wonder where those
planes are now and what they're doing.
The article goes on to quote Lance as saying that they built the Sentry on
spec and the Mexican Navy liked it, had an order ready, and then underwent a
regime change and everything "just sort of stalled".
