The F-5 is a legendary fighter aircraft designed and produced by the American company Northrop, a only fighter aircraft manufacturer offering a light and cheap fighter aircraft in the 1960s. F-5 was produced in two versions; F-5A and two-seats, identified as a single-seat, fighter aircraft, training and war F-5B. The F-5 was much smaller than the modern hunter aircraft with a weighing about one-third of the popular F-4 Phantom's weight. He owed such a small size to the engines used in it. Northrop's designers have seen early progress in the development of small turbojet engines made for guided missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles. They found that these engines have a proper thrust-extension ratio, and they can also be used on a double-engine plane because they were relatively small, and thus provide further reliability. The aircraft did not have complex avionics and electronics, so preparations and inspections did not require much work. As a result, the preparation factor of the units equipped with these machines was very high, especially compared to other supersonic aircraft of that period. The F-5 had a relatively simple equipment that limits war capabilities, but still had a reasonable compromise between machinery, price and value. It provided significant defense and attack potential to the aviation of poor countries. The designers of Northrop tried to produce the smallest possible fighter. The F-5A was equipped with two 20 mm m39a-2 balls mounted on the nose of the machine, and ammunition supply was 280 bullets per gun. The supply, maintenance and supply procedures of ammunition did not cause any problems as in other maintenance activities. All teams were where the armor standing on the ground could reach. It was simple to adjust the settings of the balls in front of the machine at a certain point in front of the machine. The basic tools were enough to do this. The theoretical shooting rate of the balls was 1500 bullets per minute. Even a short explosion of this weapon may have devastating effects. The wing tips are designed to hang the Sidewinder missiles with a weapon from a great air to the air. F-5 is stable and has good pilotage properties, so you get the perfect hit when shooting the balls. The two-seat version of the Free fighter F-5B was not armed with balls unlike the F-5A, but it had seven suspension nodes for various weapons and additional fuel tanks, such as a single-seat version. The F-5 proved itself many times in attacks on ground targets, had the ability to maneuver at both low and high speeds, had a good view of the cabin, very stable. F-5 immediately succeeded when he was put into service in 1964: 85 percent. The fighting competitions held at that time resulted in the success of this small fighter. Due to the changes made in January 1971, F-5A / B was renamed as F-5E, known as Tiger II. Two years later, the two-person version of Tiger II, called F-5F, also appeared. In the E/F version, this aircraft is used as an entrance aircraft and then the pilots switch to F-18. Since 1994, Northrop Grumman and the USAAF have been cooperating intensively to further improve the body, avionics and cockpit of F-5E/F. As a result, Northrop Grumman is preparing for the modernization of the F-5A/B aircraft in the next four years. Stages or the highest standard known as Tiger IV. Improvements are related to the aircraft with a multi-range radar (eg APG-66), war task computer, multi-functional imaging systems in the cabin, hud, navigation system, in-vehicle oxygen production installation, launch seat, weapon management system, modern systems equipped with modern systems. In addition to flight control systems, spare body elements made of lighter or stronger materials. The F-5 also offers elements such as combat task software borrowed from the F-20, such as stronger engines. You can even order the wing change to make it possible to hang Maverick missiles. There is much more possibilities for modernization, and it will happen because Northrop / Grumman engineers are constantly working on it. Therefore, it is not a surprise that F-5 is one of the most successful export products in the history of the US Aviation Industry. Technical Data (for F-5A version): Maximum speed: 1.4 mA, climbing speed: 146 m/s, practical ceiling: 15550 m, maximum range: 2520 km, armament: two pieces of 20 mm m39a-2 ball, suspended-up to 2.800 kg of bombs and rocket.2520 km, arms 20 mm m39a-2-29a-2-to-2 cannon Bomb and rocket.2520 km, armament: two 20 mm m39a -2 ball, suspended - bombs and rockets up to 2,800 kg.
