IIRC, the Corsair, Mustang, and Thunderbolt all saw service into the end of the 1960s with 3rd world air forces. Did any other piston engine fighters do that?

The Sea Fury lasted into the 60s, with Pakistan retaining its until 1973, though in far fewer numbers than the American planes. And of course, the Skyraider lasted into the late 70s, though it's not really a fighter. Those 3 you mentioned are the only wartime planes to last that long, though.
