Mig-27 and Su-17 in the export market

End of the cold war a lot of surplus su-17/mig-27 were available with relatively new airframes esp since the VVS used su-24/25 as standard equipment
Would they have been good in the export market ? esp to nations already familiar with using soviet equipment or those embargoed by the US/NATO
they were cheap, plenty of spares, relatively hi tech and probably a lot of ex-WP mercenaries ready to fly and maintain them
