Hasegawa 1/72 F-20 Tigershark

About this Product

The Hasegawa 1/72 F-20 Tigershark is a finely crafted scale model of the Northrop fighter prototype designed as a lightweight, high-performance alternative to more expensive jets. This plastic model kit features sharply molded parts, detailed panel lines, a clear canopy, and underwing stores such as missiles and drop tanks. The kit also includes decal options reflecting the aircraft’s prototype livery and test program.

The Northrop F-20 Tigershark was developed in the 1980s as an evolution of the F-5, offering greater speed, advanced avionics, and improved combat performance. Although it never entered full production, the F-20 gained attention for its agility, simplicity, and cost-effectiveness. It remains a favorite among aviation enthusiasts and modelers for its sleek profile and unique place in Cold War aerospace history.
