The F-5 was developed during the 1960s to meet the requirements of a
number of NATO countries that needed a simple, cheap and easy to maintain
multi-role fighter. Its airframe inspired the subsequent introduction of
the F-5E Tiger II in the early 1970s. Equipped with two new J85-GE-21 jet
engines capable of providing much higher power and thrust than the previous
version, it was characterized by a longer and enlarged fuselage. The
improved flight performance arising from the new aerodynamic lay-out, the
greater operational range and the updated avionics, allowed the Tiger II to
be used successfully by numerous air forces. The basic armaments were two
20 mm cannons installed in the nose under the cabin, supported by the
capability to deploy a wide set of air-to-air missiles. In addition to its
primary fighter role it still however retained extensive ground attack
capabilities.
