F-5A Freedom Fighter TuAF
This is my 1/48 Kinetic F-5A in TuAF markings circa 1971.
The kit is designed in modular fashion, boding well for a variety of F-5 types to be done. Basically, The kit fuselage is broken down into forward and rear sections, so more variants are obviously planned.

The kit comes with complete intakes, a nice touch, though perhaps somewhat difficult to
build and eliminate the seam that runs down the length on both sides.
The
instrument panel is not accurate for a classic F-5A. It s a kind of modernized version. So it needs some correction. I used
the Eduard PE instrument panel for correction. But this time the color of the PE instrument panel was
wrong. It s a purplish color. That's why I repainted it to the accurate cockpit grey color. Second modification is the Wolfpack F-5A seat.
