The FT-5 is the Chinese-built two seater version of the J-5/F-5, itself a copy of the Soviet MiG-17. Sri Lanka received two of these aircraft, both survive and have been put on display. One is at Vavuniya air base and this SFT-1302 (ex CTF-702) in the excellent Sri Lanka Air Force (SLAF) museum in Ratmalana.
