The Saudi Falcons Aerobatic Team of the Royal Saudi Air Force presented an air show at the Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT 2023) in Gloucestershire, England.

RIAT 2023 is the world’s largest military air show. It is running from July 14 to 16, with the participation of more than 250 aircraft from some 58 countries.

The event featured a wide range of aircraft on display, from the massive B-52 long-range bomber to fighter jets, helicopters, and transport airplanes.

This year’s event is being held under the theme “Skytanker23” and will focus on the important role of air-to-air refueling in modern military aviation.

The exhibition offers a historical journey through the significant developments of air refueling technology from its early stages in 1923.

He reaffirmed the council's rejection of these military operations and called on all parties to exercise maximum restraint to avoid the consequences of continued military conflicts in the region.
Albudaiwi also called on the international community to assume its responsibilities and work to de-escalate the situation.
