One of the few times I think I've ever been excitedly waiting for an interview
The Tigershark has to be my all-time favorite plane, to the point where I've been digging through the internet to find as much info as I can possibly memorize
Me too!
My dad worked on the F20 project as a software/systems engineer but the only thing I have is a sick F20 tie-clip. Too bad the project wasn't selected for production!
@@brendennorris4425 You should have that printed on a T-shirt!
One unfortunately crashed in my hometown. Legend has it parts of the aircraft are still flying to this day!
Nice to see you again Hush.
A bit of voice over by William Conrad, Class!
One of the great tragedies of military aviation. The F-20 was damn good plane. I wonder if it can still be sellable with updated radar & avionics. I hear there is 1 or 2 in museums.
A bit of design legacy, & certainly the philosophy of F-20 lives on in form of JF-17: the rudder & LERx, small single-engine design, potent weapons mix, MMI, fast deployment, & (I resume) great turn around time.
I also see the SAAB Gripen as a descendent of the F-20. Same engine, similar dimensions and same emphasis on rapid response.
Have you heard of the Grumman Super 7?
@@Scott11078 ooh no, I'll take a look. What are your thoughts in the meantime?
How great/F16?
"Turn around" I though
"Turning rate" initially
Can u reply for both
Svp?
Unbeliveble 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I love thet jet.. the f20 are realy Amazing 💥💥💥💥💥
If I was a billionare, and bought my own country. I would pay Northrop/Grumman to go back to the drawing board on the F-20 for me.
Keeping the same philosophy of use, but with up to date avionics and weapon systems and improved stealth.
It would my main intermediate F/A boi.
Also, you fired a sparrow at a target and it went boom, what else did you expect would happen?
A fine aircraft.
For us people who don't read... will there ever be an audiobook or something? xD
Finest combat aircraft never to go into production
This! It’s like the griphen before the griphen was even fully realized.
2 for 2
Northrop losses 2 fighter aircraft production contracts.
The F20 & the YF23
Seems Northrop doesn’t pay their lobbyists enough.
At the time, they also had the B-2 Spirit, which was a massive project in its own right (probably worth more to the company than the F-20 and YF-23 combined)
