Formed in 1964, the Red Arrows are the RAF’s world-famous aerobatic team. Flying Hawk jets in perfect synchrony, they’ve become symbols of British precision and teamwork, thrilling crowds worldwide with their red, white, and blue smoke trails.

Formed in 1964, the Red Arrows are the official aerobatic display team of the Royal Air Force and one of Britain’s best-known aviation ambassadors. Flying the BAE Systems Hawk jet, they’ve performed thousands of displays across the world, known for their precision, teamwork, and the trademark red, white, and blue smoke trails. Their displays celebrate the skill and discipline of RAF pilots while inspiring new generations with the thrill of flight.

 

The Eurofighter Typhoon is a highly agile aircraft, designed to be a supremely effective dogfighter in combat. Later production aircraft have been increasingly better equipped to undertake air-to-surface strike missions and to be compatible with an increasing number of different armaments and equipment, including Storm Shadow and Brimstone missiles. The Typhoon had its combat debut during the 2011 military intervention in Libya with the UK's Royal Air Force (RAF) and the Italian Air Force, performing aerial reconnaissance and ground-strike missions.

After performing his last 'solo' display at the Duxford Autumn Airshow, Westland Wasp XT787 brings the Belgian Air Force F-16 display pilot Cdt. Michel 'Mich' Beulen back in from nearby RAF Mildenhall where he was based for the weekend. Shame the commentator's timing was a little off announcing his arrival as I don't think he got suitable recognition from the crowd!
