Pilots from VFC-111 "Sundowners" perform a special airpower demonstration using five beautiful F-5N Tiger IIs during the Friday airshow at the NAS Key West Southernmost Air Spectacular. VFC-111 serves as adversaries/aggressors, a dedicated "bad guy" force that mimics enemy techniques in order to train US Navy pilots.
Look for special moments like the sneak passes, diamond break, and the F-5 drag chute demo!

My uncle was a crew chief on F-4's in Vietnam and worked on several different aircraft including the F-5. He said that the inside of the wings on these is a honeycomb design. He said you had to be careful while working around the wings because they were so small and fragile. I guess it's all about weight saving when you have small engines like these do. Still, they are awesome little fighters and they look great with the camo paint schemes.

These jets are absolutely immaculate and the Gomers flying them are razor sharp! I haven't seen Tiger aggressors fly since 1989. These birds looked and sounded great! The Gomer diamond looks as good as the Blues'!

No The T-38 is essentially the prototype for the F-5. The F-5 is vastly different, no matter how close they look on the outside, they're still different there too, and the insides are completely foreign to one another. Not even close. Especially since these are F-5E's (actually N/M's, modernized E's used as aggressor aircraft), but even the F-5A is dramatically different.

The F-5E is still a superb fighter. I'm not surprised the Navy's upgrading their Tigers for the Aggressor Squadron and the fact they bought 44 retired Swiss F-5s says a lot. It's too bad new, more powerful and economical turbofan engines aren't in the works for this fantastic aircraft. Damn, this fighter is so beautiful.

It's been said that the F-20 was the best fighter jet ever cancelled. Chuck Yeager loved it, that's enough for me to make up my mind. Watching these Tigers fly around I can see some F-105 in their fuselage, I can see some F-104 in their wings. Love the Soviet camo'd Tigershark Aggressor specimen, so cool. Please let me upscale this airframe by 10%, replace the engines and give it 15-20% more wing and I think I'll have an aircraft that we could sell today.

The changes you suggested are basically what the F-20 was lmao, and if you change it much more, you end up with an F-16 or F-18, since both of those took heavy influence from the F-5's.

It can TURN GREAT! It's a fantastic aircraft for what we're using it for. It should/SHALL be used in this way for many more YEARS! I've been here in 401 for nearly 36 yrs.
