The T-33 was developed from the Lockheed P-80/F-80 by lengthening the fuselage by slightly over three feet and adding a second seat, instrumentation and flight controls. It was initially designated as a variant of the P-80/F-80, the TP-80C/TF-80C. They were used by many western countries as a training aircraft well into the 1990s. This is a plastic model kit that requires both paint and glue to assemble. The kit comes with decals for US Air Force, German Air Force, Frence Air force and Dutch Air Force T-33s.
