Photo Comment

The Canadian Air Force used five different aggressor color schemes on a few of their CF-5Ds. This 419 Squadron aircraft is one of two painted in the "lizard" scheme, but the only one that wrapped around the underside. Delivered December 9, 1968, is was withdrawn and stored in 1994. It's displayed in front of the Ordnance Museum in Montreal, Quebec at the time of uploading.
