Принадлежавшие ВВС США самолеты T-37 большую часть своей службы провели в естественной металлической окраске, но иногда использовался и черно-белый вариант окраски.

Свыше четырех десятилетий службы показали, что учебно-тренировочный самолет T-37 оказался надежной машиной. Однако срок его эксплуатации подошел к концу даже для изображенной на снимке версии T-37B.

T-37 почти 40 лет был основным учебным самолетом ВВС США. Вначале T-37 предполагали заменить на Fairchild T-46A, но в 1987 году это решение отменили, а в качестве замены выбрали Raytheon T-6A Texan II, приобретаемый по совместной с ВМС США программе.

Самолет T-37B-CE (66-7978) - типичный серийный "Tweety Bird", поставлявшийся Учебному авиационному командованию ВВС США. Построено 552 самолета T-37B - он стал самым многочисленным вариантом Model 318. На T-37 стояли двигатели Continental/Teledyne J69 - лицензионный вариант ТРД Turbomeca Marbore, установленного на Magister. На T-37B вместо J69-T-9 установили более мощный двигатель J69-T-25 - тягой 4,61 кН вместо 4,14 кН.

Будущие пакистанские пилоты после подготовки на самолетах MFI-17 Mushshak должны были налетать 720 часов на T-37 и лишь затем - пересесть на K-8. T-37 входили в состав 1-й и 2-й учебных эскадрилий базовой подготовки, дислоцированных в Рисалпуре.

Since its formation in 1972 the Pakistan Air Force Sherdil's J-37s have worn several different colour schemes. They were initially red overall; then natural metal with a DayGlo orange nose, wingtips and tail; in 1980 they received a sunburst scheme; and now have a striking red, white and blue finish.

Прототип Cessna Model 318 (XT-37) поднялся в воздух в аэропорту Уичиты, штат Канзас, 12 октября 1954 года. Он был оснащен ТРД Turbomeca Marbore, который собирался по лицензии в США как J69 компанией "Continental".

Switching from tandem to side-by-side seating, the U.S.A.F. has, with the twin-jet Cessna T-37A, the first of a new series of intermediate jet trainers. The Cessna Model 318 has a maximum speed in excess of 400 m.p.h. and an a.u.w. of 5.600 lb. The photograph shows clearly the lightweight ejection seats and the root intake to the starboard 920-lb. s.t. Continental J69-T-15 (licence-built French Turbomeca Marbore II). Rubber de-icing boots on the in take are new, as are the revised aileron and flap shapes. Most noticeable changes from the prototype (U.S.A.F. 54-716) are the additional "keel" bumper and the larger fin and rudder, which are now more square-cut. The forward fin fairing is now straight-edged and of increased area. The dark (red) band immediately behind the canopy indicates the separation point for rear fuselage removal during overhauls. The T-37A is in production at Wichita, Kansas. Fifteen pre-production models are now entering service. Span 33 ft.; length 27 ft. 1 in.; initial rate of climb 3,000 ft.p .m.; range 935 miles; cruising speed 310 m.p.h. (N.B.: Sharp eyes may detect the shadow of a swept-wing fighter which has attracted the attention of the pilot. Look for the shadow under the nose of the T-37A, almost under the "AIR" of U.S. Air Force.

The Cessna T-37A is the standard two-seat primary trainer of the U.S.A.F. and will replace the present piston-engined T-34A Mentor. Flown for the first time on 12th October 1954, the T-37 was originally intended as an intermediate trainer between primary training on piston-engined aircraft and advanced training on a high-speed jet aircraft. Since then Air Force requirements have changed and the piston-engined aircraft phase has been dropped and an all-jet training scheme adopted. The T-37 features side-by-side seating for the instructor and pupil and is unusual in U.S. trainers in this respect. Of all-metal construction its wing incorporates high-lift slotted flaps, and an air brake is situated just aft of the nosewheel doors. Equipment includes provision for day and night instrument flying, jettisonable canopy and ejector seats. Engine inlet screens extend automatically over the wing-root air intakes when the undercarriage is locked in the down position, and they prevent stones or other debris entering the intake ducts during take-off and landings. The screens retract with the undercarriage. Power plant is two 920-lb.s.t. Continental J69-T-9 turbojets and they give the T-37 a maximum speed at 35,000 ft. of 393 m.p.h. Since the prototype was first flown the aircraft has been modified with the addition of a rear underfuselage strake, and a nose strake, one either side, which was fitted to increase fuselage damping and reduce spin rate.
