I wonder how a Tweet would do in "combat" with a Buckeye? Anyone ever see
these two go mano a mano?

Advantage Buckeye - it at least has a hook it can use for close quarter combat.

Haven't seen a T-37/T-2 matchup, but, back in the '70s, I did see a
T-2 and a B-57 go at it up in Yankee 1. (Low Level Training Route in
the White Mountains in New England.) It mostly consisted of the T-2
trying to shake the Iron Cranberry off of its tail. B-57s can _turn_!

I don't know whose T-2 it was - I'd expect it was fron NAS Brunswick,
or NAS South Weymouth, but occasionally Raytheon or Sanders would have
one bailed ot them - The B-57 was from the VT ANG. They were a DSES
(Defense Systems Evaluation Squadron) at the time. The airplane was
in the 1950's Night Intruder gloss Black finish - downright predatory
looking - sort of like Darth Vader chasing Luke Skywalker.
