The Mitsubishi T-2 Trainer was used by the 4th Kokudan (Wing) / 21st Hikotai (Fighter Training Squadron) at Mitsushima, AB to train pilots for the Mitsubishi F-2 Fighter that had been developed from the T-2. In 2003 the T-2s began to be retired so the 21st Hikotai painted one of the T-2s in a special scheme. It had two purposes; one to mark 28 years using the T-2 and the 40th anniversary of the 21st Squadron. The last T-2 retired in March 2006.
Designed to replace the T-33 as an advanced supersonic trainer, the T-2 was first flown in 1971. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
