Northrop NF-5A Freedom Fighter light jet fighter at the Museum of Aviation in Košice
Summary edit
| Description |
English: Northrop NF-5A Freedom Fighter light jet fighter displayed at the Museum of Aviation in Košice, Slovakia. Manufactured by the American aviation company Northrop Corporation 1959 and 1987, it had been part of the inventory of the United States military for a number of decades, and had been exported to many countries around the world and served in their air forces. Many are still in active service, especially in smaller air forces. The NF-5A variant was a single-seat fighter (based on the Canadair CF-5A variant), originally license-built for the Royal Netherlands Air Force (Koninklijke Luchtmacht), numbering 75 specimens. Ten NF-5A fighters from the Netherlands were sold to the Greek Air Force in 1991. The preserved specimen shown here is one of the ex-Dutch and ex-Greek NF-5A fighter planes. It carries the roundel of the Greek Air Force. The Museum of Aviation in Košice also displays a Northrop T-38 Talon, which served as the development basis for the F-5 light jet fighter.
Slovenčina: Ľahká prúdová stíhačka Northrop NF-5A Freedom Fighter, vystavené v Múzeu letectva v Košiciach, Slovensko. Vyrábané americkou spoločnosťou Northrop Corporation v rokoch 1959-1987, bolo súčasťou ozbrojených síl Spojených štátov na niekoľko desaťročí, a exportované do mnohých krajín po celom svete, slúžiac v ich vzdušných silách. Mnohé z týchto stíhačiek sú ešte stále v aktívnej službe, obzvlášť v menších vzdušných silách. Variant NF-5A bol jednosedadlovou stíhačkou (založenou na variante Canadair CF-5A vyrábanom v Kanade), pôvodne vyrobený na zmluvu pre Holandské kráľovské letectvo (Koninklijke Luchtmacht), v počte 75 kusov. Desať stíhačiek NF-5A z Holandska bolo odpredaných Vzdušným silám Grécka v roku 1991. Tu vystavený zachovaný exemplár je jedným z bývalých holandských a gréckych stíhacích lietadiel NF-5A. Nesie výsostný znak Vzdušných síl Grécka. Múzeum letectva v Košiciach vystavuje aj prúdové cvičné lietadlo T-38 Talon, ktoré slúžilo ako vývojový základ pre ľahkú prúdovú stíhačku Northrop F-5. |
