USAF Thunderbirds

Flying six F-16 Fighting Falcons, the USAF Thunderbirds’ demonstration shows the pride, professionalism and precision that the USAF represents.

The Thunderbirds, known as America’s Ambassadors in Blue, aim to excite and inspire everyone who sees them. Formed in 1953, the Thunderbirds have been the Air Force’s official air demonstration team for 70 years.
