An obvious marketing fail. Countries recognize the F-5E as once being in the U.S. inventory. They should have named it the F-5G instead of renaming it a brand new F20.

ACTUALLY MEXICO SHOULD BUY THIS INSTEAD OF THE F5. WISH ARE THE MEXICAN AIR FORCE

Dude, if these were in the military when we went to war, Bush could've just said "Send in the Tigersharks!" and Iran probably wouldn't even be there anymore.

@lSaif even the F-16 is a POS in front of the F-20!!!!!

If I was a leader of a country I'd purchase the prototypes and the blue prints for this aircraft, its similar to the F-16 but much cheaper!

Best program ever to get the axe. At least aside from that plane with the single intake behind the cockpit. I dont think the pilots were thrilled with the idea of getting sucked into an engine at ejection tho'.
i like the f-20 tigershark and it's a shame they discontinue production by 1986. poorer countries air force could still have it and still do an excellent job protecting their air space if it still was being produce even up to now.

Well, it almost did, but customers did not want to buy a plane that was not one of the U.S.'s front line fighters. It was never meant for service in the U.S. but for their allies. Naturally, the "allies" do not trust American business or politics and would not order the plane. Also, Regan decided to sell the F-15 and f-16 to anybody who could afford it. It is really a shame however because this plane could do the job properly.
