Portugal - Air Force Northrop T-38A Talon 2601

Photographer's remark

Retired in early 90´s, the T-38 Talon is a supersonic trainer. in early 80´s Portugal intended to replace its ageing fleet of F-86 for F-5 Freedom Fighters but for political reasons it aquired the Vought A-7 Corsair II. A awesome aircraft that had, in spite of its limitations, to performe the role of air defense until the arrival of the F-16 in 1994.
