Debatable, which is kinda the point.The F4 could carry a load of bombs and the full AAM load. An F-5 is either carrying more than 2x AAMs or is carrying 2x AAMs and bombs.We generally know that the F5 is a maneuverable and hard to see aircraft, witness the use of F5s in aggressor squadrons.I think that the biggest stumbling block to the F5 as the USAF fighter is that it was picked up as something for less advanced allies to fly. If the RCAF was insulted when they replaced their fighters with CF5s, I can only imagine how insulted the USAF would be.
