F20/F5G Tigershark

LAST EDITED ON 21-Sep-00 AT 04:31 PM (GMT)[p]Hi,

This aircraft designed in the 80’s (in fact a modern, single engined F5) would be a very good opponent for the F16, but i nade get further than the design table. What was wrong with this aircraft … I looked nice to me, in fact, nicer than the F16. But the fighter was only proposed for the agressor squadrons. If they would bring back this fighter in production: would there be much interesses for this, you think?
