The F-5E/F Tiger II is a jet fighter developed in the United States by Northrop. This aircraft has been in use since the 1970s, mainly by NATO countries, as well as by numerous allied nations worldwide. The F-5E/F served as a multirole fighter, trainer, and as an aggressor aircraft in US pilot training programs, excelling in the adversary role during exercises such as Red Flag throughout the Cold War era.
