Summary

Machine summary

Six J-10 display aircraft of the PLAAF August 1st Aerobatic Team flew over the Huangyaguan Great Wall in Tianjin on November 6 to mark the 77th anniversary of the People's Air Force founding, with the article using the occasion to catalog the team's 13 overseas deployments since 2013 across Russia, Malaysia, Thailand, the UAE, Pakistan, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Thailand again in 2025. The February 2024 Saudi Arabia deployment is the one operationally notable data point: it was the first time a YU-20 tanker provided aerial refueling escort support during an overseas transit mission, documenting a concrete expansion of PLAAF long-range logistics capability tied to a soft-power mission. The article is otherwise standard military-media profile content; its value is as a consolidated public record of the team's overseas schedule, including a February 2026 Singapore Airshow appearance not yet widely reported.
