Does anyone's Aikido include leg or ankle sweeps?

I know a fair amount of Judoka who train in Aikido but I have never seen their lower body sweeps incorporated.

Yes hip throws are a major component of Aikido but,I always feel like it's a bit of a wasted opportunity. Both ankle and leg sweeps are useful tools and I feel could be a wonderful addition to the techniques we train in.

Any example you can think of (and hopefully show in a link) would be much appreciated.

Thank you for your time and attention,

Train well!
