F-5A Freedom Fighter
During the 1950s, the American Aircraft Company Northrop began developmental
work into a simple and “low cost” fighter that would meet the needs of several
NATO member air forces. The F-5 met the precise specification, it being a
light single-seat fighter, small in size but ex-tremely manoeuvrable and
effective. It was relatively simple and cheap to produce and was operationally
efficient. The initial version produced by Northrop, designated F-5 A “Freedom
Fighter”, was fitted with two General Electric J85-GE-13 engines and could
attain a maximum speed of 1,700 Km / h. Armed with two 20 mm. guns installed
in the nose, the F-5 was a cred-ible “multi-role” aircraft due to its weapons
load capability, which could offer a wide range of offensive options for both
air defence and ground attack missions. This multi-role aspect of the aircraft
ensured its rapid take-up by many Air Forces.
