Thrilling new US Air Force film announced by Netflix with incredible first look

A couple of years ago, Top Gun: Maverick took the world by storm, making almost $1.5 billion at the box office and seeing real-life recruitment skyrocket.

Aside from the Navy pilots, let’s not forget those in the US Air Force, who are the focus of a new movie.

Announced today by the streaming service, “a new documentary film coming this spring will go behind the scenes of a highly esteemed pillar of the United States Air Force: The Air Demonstration Squadron.

“These pilots travel around the country performing extremely difficult and uniquely complex aerial maneuvers in military aircraft in order to showcase both the capabilities of the planes and the demo pilots themselves.”

The synopsis added: “For the first time ever, viewers will get the opportunity to sit in the cockpit with the Air Force’s legendary flight squadron, The Thunderbirds. Formed in 1953, the team is both one of the oldest squadrons in the Air Force and one of the oldest formal flying aerobatic teams in the world, demonstrating the power of the F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter jets for over 40 years. In Air Force Elite: Thunderbirds, audiences will witness the unprecedented training, peril, and personal sacrifice it takes to push the limits of aviation as a member of one America’s most revered demonstration teams.”

More information, a trailer and a release date will be arriving in the coming months.
