The Northrop F-20 Tigershark is a light fighter, designed and built by Northrop. Its development began in 1975 as a further evolution of Northrop's F-5E Tiger II, featuring a new engine that greatly improved overall performance, and a modern avionics suite including a powerful and flexible radar. Compared with the F-5E, the F-20 was much faster, gained beyond-visual-range air-to-air capability, and had a full suite of air-to-ground modes capable of utilizing most U.S. weapons. With these improved capabilities, the F-20 became competitive with contemporary fighter designs such as the General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon, but was much less expensive to purchase and operate.

Tigershark PWCs were designed to be light, sporty and inexpensive, but early models had a reputation for poor build quality, and the brand suffered, despite significant improvements with the introduction of the 1997 models. The line was introduced in 1993 as a singular Tigershark model. Across seven years, the brand would consist of 20 offerings between two unique hull designs, three various lengths, and two engines in various trim and sizes.
