Bananabrai Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 (edited) Could the real F-5E be transfromed into a RF-5E and back just for a mission? I read somewhere, that the nose could be swapped. I don't know if ED works on the implementation of RECCE and most people would use the TGPs for that anyway, but I think the cold war way of doing RECCE could be really challenging and nice, if there will be ways to process the taken snapshots. Would be a nice addition for the slightly forgotten Tiger. Edited June 2, 2021 by Bananabrai 1 Alias in Discord: Mailman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayo25 Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 (edited) The real F-5E could have its nose changed with the recce nose ( old model like the RF-5A one ). This operation took too much time, it was almost never performed. It is not possible to do the same with the RF-5E TigerEye ( long nose ).

Bananabrai Posted June 7, 2021 Author Share Posted June 7, 2021 Thanks for the info, thought that might be a thing but in that case it's from the table. An oldschool RECCE platform for BDA an so on would be really cool. Alias in Discord: Mailman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
