Freedom Fighter

Since the 1960s, Northrop designed and produced the F-5A / B Freedom Fighter and F-5E / F Tiger II as light supersonic combat aircraft, and also became the basis for the development of several other aircraft. Until the 21st century around hundreds of these aircraft are still operated by various air forces in the world. Production of F-5A and F-5E aircraft ended in 1972 and 1987.

The beginning of the development of this aircraft in the 1950s, was as a lightly Northtrop fighter aircraft financed by the private sector. The first generation F-5 Freedom began to be used in the 1960s. By 1972, more than 800 aircraft had been manufactured for allied United States states during the Cold War, while the United States Air Force bought about 1,100 aircraft.

The second generation, the F-5E Tiger II family, is also widely used by allied states of the United States, and the United States itself uses it as a training aircraft combat. The number of Tiger II produced until 1987 reached about 1,400 pieces. The F-5 aircraft, which until the 1990s and 2000s still operate has undergone many modifications to the update.

Design and development

Northrop originally designed the aircraft under the name N-156, for use as a lightweight fighter, low price, and with easy maintenance. The aircraft was designed to use a modified engine from the General Electric J85, which was originally made for use on a small McDonnell ADM-20 Quail plane that was carried as a drone by a B-52 bomber. The US Army was interested in operating the aircraft as a ground attack aircraft, but the use of winged aircraft remained the task of the United States Air Force, and the US Air Force disagreed with the use of N-156.
Although not yet received in the US Air Force, F-5 was successfully used by allies of the United States. However, the United States still does not operate the F-5 for front-line usage. The US Air Force only adopted the T-38 Talon, a trainer version of the F-5, which became the first supersonic trainer aircraft. In addition, this aircraft also became the basis in the development of YF-17, which later developed into F / A-18 Hornet.
