340boy, my oldest and best friend was an RF-4 IP in the Idaho ANG at Boise. He flew a bunch of combat missions from Thailand, went on to be a T-37 instructor (when I met him) then the RF-4 and finally an Alaska Airlines 737 jockey. He is now retired and lives in Eagle. None of which is of the slightest interest to anyone here.
I have 40 hours, mostly solo, in the bastardized AT-33. It was half T-33 trainer (two seats) and half F-80 (guns and rocket/bomb pylons) that I flew out of Cannon AFN, NM. They were used as in-country trainers for guys called up to Korea, and then mothballed until needed to upgrade us Forward Air Controllers who were destined to work with the US Army (an Army requirement). We called it "Instant Fighter Pilot School" because we came out of it with the genudamnwine official rating of "Fighter Pilot."

US B-57's could only cartridge start. The engines were the same so the exhaust from one starter blew right into the cockpit on start up. The crew had to have the canopy open on engine start so the pilot was fanning with his hand to monitor the gauges as the engine was started.

I went through tech school with a photo interpreter for the Idaho ANG RF-4C unit. If your friend was still flying in that unit in the mid-late 80's he would have known him.

Rocky, did the At-33's you flew still have the .50's in the nose? All of them I turned while I was TA had the guns removed and the gun ports covered over.

Absolutely no clue, Flem. Except that it looks grotesquely underpowered.
