This is a 1960’s era, color movie called T2V-1 Jet Trainer Design and Performance Features, produced by Lockheed Aircraft Corporation, California Division. It is a movie about the T2V-1 Jet Trainer. The Lockheed T2V SeaStar, later called the T-1 SeaStar, is a carrier-capable jet trainer for the United States Navy that entered service in May 1957. Developed from the Lockheed T-33, it was powered by one Allison J33 engine. The only version of the T2V was initially designated T2V-1 when it entered service, but was redesignated T-1A SeaStar under the 1962 United States Tri-Service aircraft designation system, which it would spend the majority of its career. The T-1A was replaced by the North American T-2 Buckeye but remained in service into the 1970s.
