Description
English: Northrup F-5E Tiger II 74-1542

The photograph was taken at Ramstein on 12 July 1979. Delivered to 527th TFTAS on 21 May 1976. It initially carried the ‘Ghost’ colour scheme, as shown on the photograph, but this was changed to ‘New Blue’ in the early 1980s. Initially, all F-5Es, including this one, had the last two digits of the serial repeated on the nose in black, outlined in yellow.

74-1542 was lost on 15 January 1986 near Ramstein AB, West Germany. The pilot ejected safely. (USAF Photo by Dick Weis)
