This is the first time ar RIAT that F-22 , B-52 , B-2 and B-1B are participating together and tickets were sold out months ago.
But PAF has become one trick pony by doing the same thing every year.
They could have sent Thunder this time or even a Mirage, as PAF is the only air force at the moment , operating these two types of jets.

Wrong everywhere.. TUSAP picture is at ATLC. Who the heck did this three minute job in order to be able to claim TA&DA?

This sort of attitude is what let F-86s in the open at Muridke blown up or led to the loss of a F-16; half-hearted wrapping up of tasks
