The Canadair CT-133 Silver Star, company model number CL-30) was the Canadian license-built version of the Lockheed T-33 Shooting Star jet trainer aircraft, in service from the 1950s to 2005. The Canadian version was powered by the Rolls Royce Nene 10 turbojet, whereas the Lockheed production used the Allison J33.
The appearance of the T-33 is very distinctive due to the large fuel tanks usually carried on each wingtip. A total of 656 T-33 aircraft were built by Canadair.
