It's Tweet time! The T-37, the USAF's primary trainer for over five decades, holds a special place in the hearts of its pilots. The Tweet's unique shape makes it a great addition to our tag collection. The T-37's history: The XT-37 took its first flight in 1954, with the T-37A joining the USAF in 1956. The initial variant was underpowered, leading to the creation of the T-37B with increased thrust and improved avionics. A total of 552 T-37Bs were delivered to the USAF by the early 70s, and all T-37As were later upgraded to T-37Bs. In total, 1269 T-37s were produced, with the Air Force retiring the aircraft in 2009. The T-37 also played a role in the development of the A-37 Dragonfly, a light attack aircraft used during the Vietnam War.
