Super Bowl LX Flyover Will Look Very Different Without the F-22
Fans heading to Super Bowl LX on Sunday will still see an impressive military aircraft flyover over Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, but the lineup will be noticeably different from what was originally planned. A pair of F-22 Raptor fighter jets, long touted as the most advanced air superiority fighters in the world, will not be part of the ceremonial formation. Military officials say this change came because the Raptors were reassigned to operational missions, leaving aviation planners to adjust the flyover to include other iconic Air Force and Navy aircraft. The revised show is still designed to honor the nation’s airpower and provide a memorable tribute for nearly 70,000 fans in the stadium and millions watching on television.
