The F-5E Tiger 11 has been in service with the Chilean Air Force since 1975 and most were upgraded to F-5E Tigre 111 with the help of Israeli Aircraft Industries in the early 1990s. 5 Tigers were present at CRUZEX 2008 supported by a B707 tanker. 812 was withdrawn in 2010 and is now on display outside the Air Force Headquarters at Los Cerillos.
