After participating in The Royal New Zealand Air Force (RNZAF) 80th anniversary in Air Tattoo at RNZAF Base Ohakea on the 25 and 26 February 2017, the Republic of Singapore Air Force team moved on to Australian International Airshow in Avalon, Melbourne.
The assets for both Airshows consist of 1 x Boeing KC-135R Stratotanker, 1 x C-130 Hercules, and 2 x Boeing F-15SG. All aircraft were there as static display.
