F-5E Tiger II 3D model

F-5E Tiger II | Austrian Luftstreitkräfte Livery | Realistic 3D Model

This is a high-quality 3D model of the Northrop F-5E Tiger II, accurately recreated with the Austrian Air Force (Luftstreitkräfte) livery used during the aircraft’s service period in Austria. Ideal for use in flight simulators, military animations, educational content, or real-time applications, the model combines realistic geometry with detailed PBR textures and historically correct markings.

Features:

Authentic Austrian Air Force livery with national insignia and aircraft serials

Accurate recreation of the F-5E’s fuselage, wings, and twin-engine layout

Topology: Quad-based, animation-friendly geometry

Poly Count: Optimized for both render and real-time performance

Historical Background:

Austria operated a fleet of leased F-5E Tiger IIs from 2004 to 2008, borrowed from the Swiss Air Force as a temporary solution while awaiting delivery of the Eurofighter Typhoon. During this time, the F-5E served in the air policing role, helping to maintain Austria’s sovereign airspace under NATO-aligned standards.

Despite being a short-term solution, the Tiger II performed reliably and effectively. The aircraft were flown with Austrian roundels and red-white-red fin flashes, while retaining much of their original Swiss configuration. Their presence marked a unique chapter in the Luftstreitkräfte’s transition from the Saab Draken to modern multirole fighters.

Ideal Use Cases:

Cold War to early 2000s flight simulation

Austrian Air Force historical recreations

Military training or defense visualization

Aviation-themed cinematics and animations

Note: Lighting and scene setup used in promotional renders is not included in the downloadable files.
