All Lockheed T-33 aircraft were produced under USAF contract, including those for the U.S. Navy, originally designated as TV-2s and then, in 1962, re-designated as T-33Bs.

A total of 5,691 Lockheed-built T-33A-1/5-L0s were produced by 1959, when Lockheed stopped production. There were at least 1,046 T-33s built under license by other manufacturers.

Other T-Bird versions were built, including the AT-33A-L0 for Latin America and Southeast Asia, the DT-33-33A-L0 for drone directors, the NT-33A as special test aircraft, the QT-33A as drones, the RT-33A as a photo reconnaissance aircraft, the TO-2/TV-2 for U.S. Navy, the TC-2D as a U.S. Navy drone director, and the TV-2KD as the U.S. Navy drone.

Today, the T-33 continues to serve in Canada as a target tug and general utility jet transport being re-designated as the CT-133.

At the beginning of the 1980s, the T-33s were being retired from several air forces, but it wasn’t until April 1997 when the USAF retired its last NT-33, a flight control systems research aircraft, ending 50 years of USAF active duty for the T-Bird.

The last U.S. Air National Guard T-33 was retired in 1987.
