De Canadair CT-133 Zilveren Ster is a jet trainer aircraft that was designed and built by Canadair, a Canadian aerospace company, in the 1950s and 1960s. It is a licensed variant of the Lockheed T-33 Shooting Star, a widely used American trainer that originated from the Lockheed F-80 fighter. The CT-133 was the primary jet trainer of the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) and later the Canadian Forces (CF) until it was replaced by the CT-114 Tutor in the 1970s. The CT-133 had several modifications from the T-33, such as a more powerful engine, a different cockpit layout, and a distinctive black and yellow paint scheme.
De CT-133 was also used for various other roles, such as photo-reconnaissance, electronic warfare, target towing, and flight test. Over 650 CT-133s were produced by Canadair, and some of them were exported to other countries, such as Bolivia, Turkey, and Greece. The CT-133 was retired from the CF in 2005, but some of them are still flying today as civilian-owned warbirds or research aircraft.
