Tthe 캐나다 CF-5 (공식적으로 CF-116 프리덤 파이터로 지정됨)은 주로 캐나다군(CF-5)과 네덜란드 공군(NF-5)을 위한 미국 노스롭 F-5 프리덤 전투기의 캐나다 라이센스 제작 버전입니다. CF-5는 캐나다에서의 서비스 경력 전반에 걸쳐 주기적으로 업그레이드되었습니다. 캐나다군은 1995년에 이 유형을 퇴역시켰지만 CF-5는 다른 국가에서 계속 사용됩니다.

General Characteristics and Role
The Canadair CF-5 (formally designated CF-116 Freedom Fighter in Canadian service) was the Canadian version of the American Northrop F-5 Freedom Fighter and was license-built by Canadair. It was designed as a light, supersonic fighter and attack aircraft, intended to provide close air support and tactical reconnaissance for the Canadian Armed Forces in Europe. Unlike the original F-5, the CF-5 incorporated several modifications to meet specific Canadian requirements, including a simplified landing gear for operations on semi-prepared runways, improved navigation equipment, and the more powerful General Electric J85-CAN-15 engine. The CF-5 served with Canada from the late 1960s until 1995. The majority of CF-5s were later sold to other nations, including Turkey and Venezuela.
