The F-22 Raptor is made by Lockheed Martin, and according to their website: F-22 Raptor has delivered on its promise to provide unprecedented air dominance. The 5th Generation F-22’s unique combination of stealth, speed, agility, and situational awareness, combined with lethal long-range air-to-air and air-to-ground weaponry, makes it the best air dominance fighter in the world.
The Air Combat Command F-22 Demonstration Team from Langley Air Force Base will perform various maneuvers and stunts with the F-22 Raptor.

There will also be a classic car show (the “wheels”) in conjunction with the airshow. Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the gate.
