Actually the Mirage III CJ used here were bought from Israel after the Malvinas/Flakland war. They didn't fly too much (at least the flying hours used to in our A.F.) because they were very old and at least one of them intended as a spares source arrived in Argentina chock full of sand. It was nicknamed "El Arenero", the "Sandy" or "Sandman" (not related to the tale character). Many of them, if not all, had fought in the Six Days War and at least 2 of them were the mount of israeli aces during that conflict. One of them was returned to Israel after discovery of the kill markings on the nose. Is sits today at the IAF Museum in its half-argentine half-israeli camo and markings. Those planes were serialed in the C-700 range of numbers.
All this info comes from several sources on the Internet such as Airliners.net and Aeronet GCE.
This pictures are from Mirage IIICJ in the old A.F. Museum next to Buenos Aires Airport, Aeroparque Metropolitano. They are some 8 years old but they'll do about the camo and markings. I was able to seat in the cockpit and while it is not roomy, the pilot is in a very comfortable position and ergonomics are quite good for such an airplane of that era.

If you want to, the images can be posted on the warplanes forum, no problem.
