Be treated to an extra 30-minute aerobatic flying display taking place at this year’s Singapore Airshow over the public weekend on 6 and 7 February. This is in addition to the 60-minute aerial display.

See daredevil pilots pushing their machines to the limit, performing amazing aerobatic stunts that require extreme concentration and split-second timing. Be wowed by the sheer elegance of the spectacular planes and let the extreme flying machines take your breath away.

Making its last performance in Asia will be the F-111 strike aircraft which is operated by the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF). The F-111 will be lighting up the skies performing the trail-blazing "Dump and Burn".

In addition, the A-10 Thunderbolt II will be making its first Asian show debut. The A-10 is operated by the United States Air Force and will be part of both the aerial performance. Reputed as the “Tank Killer”, it can attack tanks, armored vehicles and other ground targets. Its unique design allows for high maneuverability at low speeds and altitude.

Aviation enthusiasts, young and old, can also look forward to the first-ever aerobatic team showcasing the integrated air display segment by the Republic of Singapore Air Force F-16 Falcon fighter aircraft and AH-64 Apache attack helicopter in Southeast Asia.
