Kinetic 48123 1/48 CF-5D Freedom Fighter

Model Aircraft Kit

Kinetic’s 1/48 CF-5D Freedom Fighter captures the Canadian two-seat variant of Northrop’s compact and versatile lightweight fighter. This detailed kit recreates the Royal Canadian Air Force and Canadian Armed Forces CF-5D with finely engraved panel lines, a detailed dual cockpit, accurate landing gear, and the distinctive features of the Canadian-modified Freedom Fighter. Developed from the Northrop F-5 family, the CF-5 was produced in Canada by Canadair and served as a fast, economical aircraft for training, reconnaissance, and tactical roles. The CF-5D provided advanced fighter training while retaining operational capability, helping prepare Canadian pilots for frontline aircraft during the Cold War era.
