NDP 2016 RSAF flypast (Preview)

Come 2016, Singapore will be celebrating it’s 51st  birthday at Singapore Sports Hub for the first time, the same location where former National Stadium used to hold National Day Parade for many years.

For this year, RSAF will be showcasing 5 F-16D+ to perform salute to the nation. And of course, the 2 Apaches escorting chinook – the flag bearer.

UPDATE 12 Jul 2016 : After 4 rehearsals, we did not see or hear any F-16D+. Looks like there will not be any F-16D+ salute to the nation. The RSAF will only be performing the state flag flypass with a CH-47 Chinook and 2 escorting AH-64D Apaches, they would not be anywhere near the National Stadium but off the coast near Tanjong Rhu.
