- The Lockheed T-33 Shooting Star (or T-Bird) is an American subsonic jet trainer. It was produced by Lockheed and made its first flight in 1948. The T-33 was developed from the Lockheed P-80/F-80 starting as TP-80C/TF-80C in development, then designated T-33A. It was used by the U.S. Navy initially as TO-2, then TV-2, and after 1962, T-33B. The last operator of the T-33, the Bolivian Air Force, retired the type in July 2017, after 44 years of service.
Today's example is from Falcon Models. It is 1:72nd scale and made of diecast with plastic accessories. The model is of the Lockheed T-33A Shooting Star from the ROCAF (Taiwan) 35 Squadron "3056". It is made very well with great detail.

Uma pela aeronave! Foi um excelente treinador em muitas forças aéreas pelo mundo, lindo modelo 🌟
I really do like this version, mainly for the camouflage. I really like the 3 tone scheme. 😊
@@heavymetaldiecast Sim! Realmente um belo esquema de camuflagem.
Awesome little jet & looks great in that camo! 👍👍
Sim👍👍
Yep I really like that camo scheme too!! Thanks for watching!!
A very tidy little model and aircraft and love the camo too! And what is more Watson another case solved. The mystery of the errant strut. But not elementary!
Yeah I am a fan of that camo scheme too. Well I am hoping thats what that strut is for, it does seem to be, but its only an assumption as I am yet to open one of these that actually have a set of instructions,haha. It just originally throw me because there is two, it never occurred to me it was for the canopy until I was trying to hold the canopy open to take photos and it wouldn't stay open,haha. Thats when the light bulb moment hit me,haha. But I could still be wrong!! 😂😂
@@heavymetaldiecast Makes sense though
@@peterhewson3216 those words don't often get directed my way,haha
@@heavymetaldiecast The more I live the less things make sense!
Awesome video! I just got my first falcon model 1/72 !
I got the F-9 panther US navy . I will hopefully review soon with the rest of my pick ups I’m way behind on reviewing .
Ah cool, I have been trying to get an F-9 too but they have been really expensive to find here. The Panthers look really nice. As I said to another channel operator, you just do things at your own pace. Its not about pumping out the vids as then it will become a chore for you. You just need to make sure your enjoying it. I only am managing to volume of videos because I'm not working so have plenty of spare time,haha. Look forward to checking out you F-9 when you get it done. Thanks for dropping past to check out the video!!
A couple of days ago, I received my first T-33 FA722015. It was completely new. Fully packed, factory. And the saddest part was that it didn't have any chassis details. Even closed, inflight. Now I'm thinking about what to do. I think I will make it from cardboard and cover it with CA glue.
Oh that's a bright one...I am doing a Bicentennial Phantom review from Corgi this week. Trying to get it out by 4th of July for my American viewers,haha. I wonder if you can 3D print some gear bay doors?? These days there is some much that can be printed out. Or you might be able to find a really cheap model it and just buy it for the landing gear parts!! Just a thought!! But unfortunate luck yours didn't have those parts. Sometimes the Diecast Gods are cruel!! Thanks for watching!!
@@heavymetaldiecast I think the best option is cardboard, +paper, +CA. It's white, very shiny. And the paper is coated with CA, it has a good shine. I know this because I used to glue paper airplane models, 1:33 scale. So I have experience. Fortunately, I love model airplanes, with a closed chassis, inflight. By the way, I bought the model only for 30 eur + 5 eur shipping.
@@slizevicius Ah awesome, sounds like you have skills!!! Great that you got one at a good price too!!
