The Museum specimen was manufactured in 1957. It operated in a training role with the RCAF until 1964 when it was transferred to the Museum. It is painted brilliant red and appeared as the Red Knight in individual aerobatic displays with the RCAF.

Canada

The Silver Star is a two-seat version of the Lockheed P-80, the first operational American jet fighter. The RCAF selected the Silver Star as its first jet trainer, but had the design modified to accommodate a more powerful British engine. After the first Silver Star was delivered by Lockheed, production on what was to total 656 aircraft began at Canadair Ltd. in Montreal. Besides providing excellent service to the RCAF, Silver Stars were also supplied to Bolivia, France, Greece, Turkey, and Portugal. The name "Silver Star" never caught on in Canada. Designated T-33 in the United States, the aircraft became known universally as the "T-Bird". The Canadian Forces retired its last CT-133s in the spring of 2002
