The upgraded T-38 with advanced avionics and upgraded engines is the T-38C. The T-38A is the legacy version that has been around since the 60's.
I’d say something about Boeing, but I want to live!
There never was an official P-51 trainer, and the less than a dozen field modification aircraft, TP-51C, were not used after WW2.

However, post war Temco TF51s and civilian conversions were used in a few instances, Stallion 51s TFs were under contract to the government for certain test pilot training missions.
Recently, Boeing has been in a lot of trouble, including with the T-7A, because its production is really behind schedule. Besides, the T-7a is not supersonic. Its maximum speed is 0.97 sound speed.
Partly designed and made by SAAB, Sweden. A perfect collaboration 👍🏻

It already excist. But with other wings. It is called Gripen C.
Hopefully the panels are more secure than those on the passenger aircraft.
This jet has the potential to be a light fighter in league with Saab Gripen, FA-50, JF17, Tejas. Exportable to countries that can’t afford F16.

The program itself has been delayed for many years, but the T-7 was developed very quickly. It's delayed by a few months only.
The T-38 / F-5 is a beautiful little jet! The Red Hawk should be one of our mult-role fighters, it's beautiful as well! Kudos for the recognition of the Tuskegee Airmen! They were the best escort fighters! The most highly decorated flying squadron in the European theater!
I like it. I think our back up forces should be reliable and affordable instead of so high tech and expensive. IMHO.
Great to see the heads up to the Red tails!

I've read that in the short time of development of the F-15, 2.5 million man hours of work took place. That's insane but it was seen as a huge priority for the USAF at the time with the perceived threat of the Foxbat. I'm sure the amount of man hours allocated to a trainer will be a lot less than a mainstay strike fighter with the capability of the F-15. I do agree though, they are definitely taking their time.

Why not US make a WAR version of this for the Philippine Air Force. With features intended for Naval defense and naval interception. Large fuel tanks and can carry anti ship missiles. And electronic warfare system. It doesn't need to make dogfight or air to air battle as it will be the job of the US supplied SAM's, it just need enough speed to back away after delivering its ordnance and the SAMS will do it's job when the enemy catches up. We need at least 120 Units of this jets to cover the entire WPS.
The P-51 Mustang was widely used as a trainer?? Where did that come from? There were rare two seat conversions during WW2 but never a fleet of TP-51s that i know of. Civilian owned P-51s have been converted to two seaters to provide flight experiences and to sell rides. Makes me wonder what else the vid gets wrong

regarding the TP-51C two seat trainer, Found this exact quote on several websites: “The TP-51C was a field modification that added a second seat with a full second set of controls and instrumentation that could be used for training purposes. There were at least 5 TP-51Cs that were built during WWII for training purposes, and VIP transport.”
@RichNotWealthy

@@jct1616 Yes, 5 TP-51s. But this vid gives the impression that the USAF used Mustangs widely as trainers until they were retired. The last Mustang in USAF service was an F-51D of the WVANG. Retired in 1957. If the vid creators felt the need to review past trainers there were several piston engine trainers more appropriate to a discussion of training aircraft. The T-6 and T-28 for instance

@@williamallmon3713 the video is 100% correct about Trainer Mustangs. TP-51 existed as fighter pilot trainers with controls in BOTH Front and Back passengers long after WWII until enough Jet Trainers were built in the 1960s. Some confusion comes from regular mustangs center seat tank removed allowing room for a passenger, but with no flight controls. This is what Tom Cruise owns. Toms mustang was built in 1946 as a P-51K modified to appear like WWII iconic p-51D but with center tank removed allowing for a passenger seat (no flight controls in back) Found this quote with a bit of search “After WWII, the USAAF consolidated much of its fighter aircraft. Most piston powered fighters served substantially reduced roles as more advanced jet powered aircraft emerged. The Mustang still proved useful serving in the Korean War and state-side in the Air Force Reserves and National Air Guard. TF-51D Mustangs (two-seat trainers) were used to train fighter pilots until the jet-trainers such as the T-33 Shooting Star were fully utilized.”
Keren sayapnya.
The folks who put these things out should do more research. The P51 was not a trainer inWW2 or after. There have always been dedicated training aircraft like the Piper Cub, the AT6 Texan and so on.
The T-7 as a replacement for the F-16! 😂😂😂😂 Yea, right! The F-16 would wax that back side!

A T-38 is a two-seat advanced flight training aircraft with a later added capability for weapons to drop practice bombs. An F-5E was a single-seat adaptation of the T-38 with internal guns, external fuel, and bomb capability. The USAF and USN used the F-5s in the 1970-90s as adversary air for combat training against other aircraft. There was a 2 seat fighter version, the F-5F for conversion fighter training, and a proposed F-5G. That was a single-engine fighter proposal for a low-cost alternative to the F-16, renamed as the F-20.
It's a good trainer but not in the same league as the Aeralis Advanced Jet Trainer. Just you wait and see!
Why does the gear look sooooo messed up?!
In 1984, I was in Basic Training at Ft. Sill, OK. My Unit was Alpha Btry, 1st Cannon Training Battalion, 1st Armored Division. My Barracks were the First in the line of Dozens. Across the field, and highway, was an Airforce Training unit, with T-80's landing, taking off, and touch and go's all day and night. It was pretty cool to watch.
