Of the F-5, several variations were developed, based on specific air force specs of various countries. The NF-5 was developed for the Netherlands Air Force and was based on the Canadair CF-5. This F-5 version has two more powerfull engines and some extra equipment as compared to the usual F-5A.  

The major external characteristics of the Dutch NF-5 are: 
- tailhook below aft fuselage (later also used for F-5E type) 
- two large split air intake doors aft of main wing trailing edge in both sides fuselage to provide extra air to engines (later also used for F-5E type) 
- provision to carry also the larger 275 gallon underwing fueltanks 
- manoeuvring leading edge" flaps 
- other nose wheel leg (that could be extended) 
- different cockpit main instrument panel layout 
- slightly larger intake than USAF F-5A for the more powerfull Canadian Orenda engines (similar to CF-5)
