guys i did some digging about the BAS 2022 schedule which was edited.
Wayback machine (internet archive) says the BAS 2022 page was edited multiple times during the month of november 2020

DEFSECA published an article on his site on the 12th November 2020 (still up btw) copy pasting the schedule of the BAS 2022 website (on his article) before it was edited. Now i know you guys don't trust DEFSECA , and that's understandable but i swear i read the words '' Contracts to be signed (or something along those lines) '' when i first visited the BAS 2022 website sometime in october 2020.

Well, I'll be. they must have changed the nose cone (similar to F-20) in later versions of F-5E produced, then.
For comparison, here's an early F-5 (A or B version). With the characteristic "area rule" tip tanks and round nose cone.
Clearly you both are wrongNo those are F-5E.
Both Brazilian and Swiss.
F-20 was never exported.
Because super powers themselves dont get along and they are not willing to share bd.
Its a obsessive stalker behaviour by superpowers.
imagine being too poor to operate F-5s the simplest , cheapest and easy to operate fighters at the time. Damn.

It's radar sucks though, it would be destroyed by any 4th gen fighter.Singaporean upgraded F-5E could fire AIM-120.
This is a mini-documentary about the UAE AF first time in Red Flag. One day BAF will join red flag and get invaluable combat experience.
