The Northrop F-5E Tiger II is an American light fighter aircraft from the Cold War era. The aircraft was used by air forces of many countries around the world – including the USA, Switzerland, Iran, Brazil, South Korea, and Thailand. It debuted in 1972 and quickly gained popularity as a trainer and air superiority fighter. It took part in numerous regional conflicts at the end of the 20th century and served as an “aggressor” opponent in pilot training for NATO and the USAF.

The Eduard 481132 set includes precise photo-etched parts for the cockpit, instrument panel, seatbelts, landing gear details, interior, and external surfaces. The kit is supplemented with resin improvements, allowing for a faithful reconstruction of even the most subtle construction nuances. Assembly is possible both on Eduard base kits and dimensionally compatible kits from other manufacturers.

We especially recommend this product for intermediate and advanced modelers who value authenticity and want to make their model stand out among standard box versions. Build difficulty rating: 4/5 (precision and skill in working with photo-etched parts required).

By choosing the Eduard 481132 F-5E upgrade set, you can be certain that your F-5E model will become exceptionally realistic, crafted with the utmost attention to detail – both inside and outside the structure.
