So far I have four in the registry, I would assume there are more. If you know of any let me know

-One of the original N156 prototypes in in the Museum of Flight, Seattle.

-An ex-South...then North Vietnamese F-5 (I think an E) is in Poland.
-An F-5F in Luke markings (yellow fuselage band like the Sabres in Korea) and used to train allies (my brother was in that unit in the 70s) is at Pima.

Lackland had (don't know if it's still there) a T-38 in Vietnam camouflage with painted back canopy (the horror!!!)...along with a camo B-57A (side-by side seats bubble canopy...wrong for Vietnam) and "B" Huey painted like a USAF "F/P"...(wrong engine cowl) when a commander wanted to have a Vietnam display.

NX385AF, owned by Ross Perot, Jr., and kept at Fort Worth Alliance Airport (which Perot developed).

Registered as a T-38, but it sure looks like an F-5B to me (and I've heard others comment about this as well).

There are several dozen F-5's on display throughout Vietnam. I can think of at least a half dozen in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) alone.

Dean,
It is a hybrid. The front fuselage of T-38 65-10365 was mated to the rear fuselage of ex Norwegian F-5A 573.

I believe that the YF-5A at the NMUSAF was in the ill-fated XB-70 Valkyrie formation.

I've added a bunch more F-5/CF-5 entries. I haven't processed any of the pictures you guys posted yet, but don't worry I will.
Any information on F-5/CF-5's not listed would be great as well as any pictures you might have (especially the non-U.S. aircraft)
Thanks!

Leon Cleaver had the remains of the first Navy T-38A BuNo 158197; several photos on this thread (scroll down to the third message):

Pretty sure there's one in Winnipeg mounted in much the same way as the one in Trenton. Beside a Tim Horton's, because Canada.

FWIW, here is a photo of a USN F-5 (presumably from NAS Fallon) that was on display at the 2010 airshow at Mather Field, CA in 2010.
