Alrighty folks, I published this at probably the WORST time of day (lol), but my first fighter jet edit is done, WOOHOO!

Flight of the Tigershark.mp4

Little edit I made for my all-time favorite plane: the Northrop F-20A Tigershark! The song used is Anarchy Road, by Carpenter Brut (a favorite of mine).Links...

For those not familiar: the Eurofighter Typhoon DA7 was one of two prototype Typhoons evaluated by Italy, the other being DA3. Germany had DA1 and DA5, The UK had DA2 and DA4, and Spain had DA6. All served as demonstrators/test aircraft for the Typhoon program

Decided to look a little into Thailand's F-5Es because I think they're cool, and I gotta say: I think their F-5E SCU (Second Capability Upgrade) is a contender for new favorite F-5E variant... (DASH, Python 3/IV and AIM-9L/M, glass cockpit to name a few modernizations...)

@DaOfficialVigil Mfw the F-16 first flew in 1974, before the F-14 entered service Mfw the F-14 was used during the very last cruise of VF-1 (Evacuation of Saigon) in 1975 Mfw the AV-8A entered service in 1971, and theoretically could've been in Vietnam (but wasn't)
