Development of the F-5 continued even after the Navy withdrew its Escort Carriers, and the aircraft eventually evolved into the light, supersonic \"Freedom Fighter,\" serving US allies during the Cold War and as a supersonic trainer in the US. The second-generation F-5 (\"Tiger II\") also served US allies, but because it was small and maneuverable like a MiG it was also used by the US military as a training and \"aggressor\" aircraft, acting as the opposing force during military wargames.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHobby Master's 1:72 scale F-5 Tiger II is a sleek and fast looking model that uses a clever mix of metal and plastic components with near-seamless construction. The solid metal wing has sharp-edged plastic leading edge root extensions appropriate to the variant being modeled. The removable canopy provides a clear view of the cockpit's interior features such as the pad-printed front and side mounted instrument panels. Landing gear and doors have been included as one piece sub-assemblies that allow for quick and easy configuration for ground display. The series covers both fighter variants with optional ordnance configurations (see photos) and the long nose reconnaissance variant.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Hobby Master","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43392717226140,"sku":"HA3375","price":184.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0585\/9095\/3628\/files\/386725_99f6d9f6-58dd-4bf6-96b9-42d068f839cd.jpg?v=1780935007","url":"https:\/\/www.harveynorman.lol\/products\/1-72-f5f-tiger-ii-indonesian-air-force-tl0514-tniau-april-1980","provider":"Hobbyco","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
