It's a little different at the squadron level, but most of those are fighter and T-6/T-38 jobs.
Why? I just got hired into one in the Reserves from the TX ANG. I know of 3 other 11X positions open right now that are unfilled. If you are a LTC, the options are a little more limited but I know of one available right now. You just have to be willing to move. I just noticed at the bottom of your post that you are talking about non SQ jobs. Upper level jobs are definitely a little harder to come by. Same for AD though.
