Thrust V weight ratio?

What's the thrust to weight ratio of the T-45 and how does that compare to the T-2. How about the Hornet and the Tomcat? When you calculate thrust to weight, what weight of the aircraft do you use: dry weight, min or max takeoff? I've always wondered about that?

Matt,
How does flying jet aircraft differ from that of props in the case of stability and trim charactoristics? In general, how do they differ in handling? To make this easier compare the T-34 to the T-2 or T-45.
Assuming that the T-2 is alot more forgiving and has slower aproch speeds due to the straight wing, what was it like landing at higher speeds in T-45 in the first couple of flights?
