Your glasses aren't foggy- these are F-5's in battle dress. F-5 tactical fighters may be hard to see in their combat camouflage, but they'll always be a welcome sight to " the troops they're assigned to support. Among supersonic fight- ers the Northrop F-5 is unequaled as a stable plat- form for accurate delivery of air-to-ground weapons. Car- rying over 6,000 pounds of external stores and extra fuel, it can maneuver easily and safely at low altitudes. F-5's are designed to spend most of their time in the air over the action. They can operate from sod fields and hastily prepared strips close to the combat zone. Their maintenance and logistic requirements are very light. Wherever troops may have to fight, F-5's can be there to protect and support them. F-5's look their best in battle dress. NORTHROP F-5 CORPORATION, BEVERLY MILLS, CALIFORNIA, USA
