United States Air Force Thunderbirds
United States Air Force Thunderbirds

The Thunderbirds are the air demonstration squadron of the U.S. Air Force (USAF), based at Nellis AFB in Las Vegas, Nevada. The squadron tours the United States and much of the world, performing aerobatic formation and solo flying in specially marked USAF jet aircraft. The name is taken from the legendary creature that appears in the mythology of several indigenous North American cultures. Officers serve a two-year assignment with the squadron, while enlisted personnel serve three to four. As the squadron performs no more than 88 air demonstrations each year, replacements must be trained for about half of the team each year, in order to prove a constant mix of experience. In addition to their air demonstration responsibilities, the Thunderbirds are part of the USAF combat force and if required, can be rapidly integrated into an operational fighter unit. Since February 15, 1974 the Thunderbirds have been a component of the 57th Wing at Nellis AFB.
