Historical model F-5E: The Northrop F-5E Tiger II is a fighter aircraft operated by numerous countries, including the United States, Switzerland, Iran, Thailand, and many more. The aircraft was widely used since the 1970s during the Cold War era and in local conflicts around the world, such as by the US Navy as an aggressor during pilot training. Its timeless silhouette and wide operational capability have made it a popular modeling subject to this day.

Difficulty level: Level 1/5. Eduard masks are recommended for both beginners and advanced modelers—they allow you to achieve a professional painting effect effortlessly and without frustration.

We especially recommend this product to all modelers building the 1/48 scale F-5E from AFV CLUB who expect clean, precise canopy painting without the tedious need for cutting and fitting masking tape.
