Product description

The book covers the history of the F-5 in the Brazilian Air Force from its acquisition in 1973 to the present day, emphasizing among others the designated modernization project known as F-5M and its current operational situation. The F-5 is a unique aircraft in the FAB, having be­come the longest and most important fighter in the history of the Brazilian Air Force.

Divided purposively into 5 chapters (from F-5), the structure begins with the history of the F-5 in the world, passing through the three distinct batches of the aircraft acquired in 1973, 1988 and 2007 (chap­ters 2, 3 and 4) and ends with the chapter covering the Modernized F-5.

This second edition has a further 44 pages (an incre­ase of 25%) compared to the original edition, in or­der to update the history of the use of this aircraft in the last five years, including the reequipment of the 1st GDA, the fourth F-5M squadron, headquar­tered in Annapolis.

In addition to updating the aircrafts trajectory in Brazil, which includes new profiles, photos, fleet data, we also brought a series of updates and a comprehensive review of each chapter, correcting and expanding the data present in the first edition. It is a book that in addition to telling the biography of one of the most famous aircraft in the world, it also serves as a base for reference research for plastimodelism, as it brings fleet details, models, camouflage patterns, colors and marks of all va­riants of F-5 of the four batches used by the FAB squadrons.

600 images, tables and more than 120 drawings/profiles
