The F-20 Tigershark was a small, lightweight fighter aircraft designed and developed by Northrop Corporation in the 1980s as an evolution of the F-5 Tiger II. It was intended to be a low-cost alternative to more expensive fighter jets while still providing advanced capabilities.
The F-20 was designed to be highly maneuverable and featured advanced avionics and weapons systems. It had a top speed of Mach 2.1 and a combat range of over 1,000 miles. The aircraft was also equipped with a modern radar system and a digital flight control system.
Despite its advanced features and capabilities, the F-20 failed to attract significant interest from foreign buyers or the U.S. military, and only a few prototypes were built. The program was eventually canceled in 1986 due to lack of funding and interest.
Overall, the F-20 Tigershark was a technologically advanced and capable fighter aircraft, but it ultimately did not find a market due to competition from other more established and well-known aircraft.
