In addition, the video wasn’t just like any other aircraft promotional film; it was a 360-degree video, which showed the F-22 maneuver around the Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson as part of JBER Salutes in March 2020.

“Although most of the airshows this year were canceled because of the COVID-19 outbreak, the pandemic has not completely prevented the F-22 Raptor Demo team to perform some displays at the few airshows which have been held in a “Drive-In” format with cars, filled with people in attendance, like the New York International “Drive-In” Air Show at the end of August, or the 2020 Wings Over Houston Air Show and Bell Fort Worth Alliance Air Show last month,” reported the Aviationist.

These demonstrations include the power loop, split, and tail slide, as well as a high-speed pass and dedication pass. These maneuvers are based on those designed for combat operations but are performed at much lower altitudes than most pilots are certified to fly at.

The US Air Force approved the demonstration in 2007, replacing Air Combat Command’s F-15C demonstration team.
