Since 1981, the F-5 Tiger II gate guard has been located at RAF Alconbury.
In recent years, its started to look tired and faded, with some TLC needed.
There was a possibility that the F-5 could be lost.
After a year of discussion and hard work on all fronts, we are very pleased to announce that the RAF Sculthorpe Heritage Centre will be the new home of the F-5 gate guard.

Sculthorpe was used by the 527th Aggressor Squadron for "Gas and go" training during the late 1970s/80s.
This a great step forward for us and we need your support.
We have gofund me below which will help us move and restore the F-5 back to its former glory

Or if you can help us another way, please do email [email protected]
We are very grateful to all involved for this opportunity.

You can also support us with our special offer!
A minimum donation of £50, will see your name on the aircraft, an invite to the official unveiling and a limited edition patch!
Please email us at rshc1955 to register you interest.
