[edit] Merge

  • Support Lockheed T2V is a tiny stub, it was basically the same airplane as the T-33, no need for a separate article. - Emt147 Burninate! 04:46, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Support The Lockheed T2V was basically the US Navy's version of the T-33A. It should be merged with the T-33 Shooting Star article.
  • Against They need seperate articles because the techinical information, use, and history is all different. The T-33 was "basically" P-80, yet it has it own article also. The T2V was not simply a redesignation of the AF aircraft as you suggest (ironically the Navy did in fact use T-33 also, but did not redesignate them), but the T2V was different and got so got a new designation.

DO NOT MERGE ! !

THE T - 2V WAS NOT A NAVAL VERSION OF THE T-33. WHILE THE NAVY DID BUY THE T-33 F0R BASIC JET TRAINING, THE T - 2V WAS A SEPERATE AIRCRAFT THAT WAS CAPABLE OF HANDELING THE STRESS OF CARRIER TRAPS AND CAT LAUNCHS. MANY STUDENT NAVAL AVIATORS MADE THEIR "CAR-QUALS" IN THIS FINE A/C.

TRY THAT WITH A T - 33 AND YOU WOULD HAVE A SHREADED AIRCRAFT. THE T-33 GOT NERVOUS FLYING ANY WHERE NEAR OPEN WATER, WHILE THE T -2V WAS AT HOME OVER BLUE WATER.BAY 121 20:28, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Closing

This proposal has been open for 7 months now, with no consensus to merge (I can add my !vote against merging), so I'm removing the merge tag. Akradecki 21:48, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
