Sudanese Air Force F-5Es 206 and 208 were delivered to Sudan via Prestwick, Lakenheath and Nice between 26 May and 13 June 1984. These were the only F-5Es delivered to Sudan, together with two F-5Fs. Unfortunately, both F-5Es had already been lost by October 1985, and one F-5F crashed in June 1984. The remaining F-5F was then handed over to Jordan.
