Northrop F-5 is widely used light supersonic fighter aircraft.

The F-5 is suitable for various types of ground-support and aerial intercept missions.

The F-5 is a lightweight, easy-to-fly, simple-to-maintain, and (relatively) cheap fighter.

The F-5 was originally designed as a daytime, air-to-air fighter,

but it has also been extensively used as a ground-attack aircraft.
