The first nation announced for BAF DAYS 2026 is now revealed\u2026 and aviation enthusiasts will be thrilled: the Patrouille Suisse is returning to Belgium !<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

A prestigious team celebrating 60 years<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

After marking their 60th anniversary in 2024, the Patrouille Suisse is honoured to return to Belgium for BAF DAYS 2026. Their presence highlights the strong and lasting ties between Switzerland and Belgium, two countries frequently brought together through aviation events, including in Northern Europe and the Baltic region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A unique team in the airshow world<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Since 1995, the Patrouille Suisse has flown the iconic Northrop F\u20115E Tiger II, a fighter aircraft still actively used by the Swiss Air Force.
This sets them apart from many demonstration teams worldwide: they fly fully operational combat aircraft, not airshow\u2011dedicated platforms.
Their formation consists of six F\u20115 Tigers, flying in perfect synchronisation to deliver a display of remarkable precision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A possibly unique opportunity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In recent years, discussions have emerged about the future of the F\u20115 within the Patrouille Suisse, suggesting that a change of aircraft \u2014 or even a discontinuation \u2014 may occur in the coming years.
This makes BAF DAYS 2026 a truly exceptional chance to admire their expertise, skill, and the elegance of their F\u20115s before this chapter may come to an end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

See you at BAF DAYS 2026 !<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t miss this rare opportunity to witness one of Europe\u2019s most iconic display teams.\nBAF DAYS 2026 is already shaping up to be unforgettable\u2026 and this is only the beginning of our announcements !
