Pictured during a small-scale exercise at Tyndall, two Jacksonville AFB-based Florida Air National Guard Shooting Stars. The T-33A in the back-ground is serial 53-5901/25. At that time, the aircraft was commanded by the local 125th Tactical Fighter Wing and functioning as a simulated target aircraft for intercept training and for other pilot proficiency training.

This T-33A actually is the former M-54 (51-17411). It was painted to represent M-52 of the Whisky 4 demo team of the RNLAF. This aircraft was later moved to Woensdrecht to acts a a gate guard, where it obtained another fake serial, M-51.

The 95th Fighter Interceptor Training Squadron was activated at Tyndall on 15 Aug'74. The squadron transitioned from the F-106 (then based at Dover and inactivated in 1972) to the T-33A. The FITSgave support to the Weapons Controller Training Programme at Tyndall as well as providing training to new T-Bird pilots and QF-drone chase support for the USAF Weapons System Evaluation Programme. The 95th was the last active USAF unit to fly the T-33. The squadron transitioned to F-15 Eagle in 1988 as 95th TFTS and became later 95th FS, was inactivated in Sep'10 and activated in Oct'13 with the F-22A.

The 318th Fighter Interceptor Squadron was deactivated on 7 December 1989. The squadron flew at that time the F-15 Eagle, the units T-33As - inuse as used as a proficiency trainer and practice "bogey" aircraft within the squadron, were already phased out in 1988. The squadron was based at McChord AFB (WA), so it was a real fine surprise to see these lovely T-Birds thousands of miles from home during a small scale exercise at Tyndall (FL). This 57-0765 was retired to AMARC with inventory code TCC061, (later this became TC1361) on 19 February 1988.
