F-5E vs MiG-21 - Their First Clash, Ogaden War 1977

In July 1977, Somalia launched a war against Ethiopia with the objective of taking control of the Ogaden region. With superior ground forces, they made big advances. But Ethiopians had one strong card to play - their air force. Trained by the USA and equipped mostly with various versions of F-5, their pilots would prove crucial in the outcome of the war. But Somalis begin with a couple of victories. Their ground troops shoot down an F-5A while their MiG-17s shoot down an C-47 transport aircraft. Ethiopians now start to fly regular Combat Air Patrols with their F-5Es and sure enough, two of them are guided by a ground radar against a pair of Somali MiG-21s. This will be the first time in history that these two popular light fighter aircraft confront each other in battle.
