I am personally surprised this hasn't happened already. Other than the F-117 every fighter we've ever built have been sold overseas. The F-35 program was even initially proposed this way to help reduce the unit cost.

I'm also not quite sure why we would have to eliminate some of the planes sophistication to sell it to these allies. There are some of our closest allies, especially in the case of Israel would be a great proving ground for the aircraft! Besides they would probably make it better than we do anyway! Just like they have with the F-15's and F-16's they have.
