Red Arrows perform airshow in Kuwait

Enjoyed the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, the Red Arrows spectacular display here in Kuwait on 28th September 2017 on the Gulf road, near the Kuwait Towers.  The show started with a 15 minutes show of the Kuwait Air Force planes , followed by a 20 minute long show which colored the sky with blue, red and white .

The crowd enjoyed watching the show and taking photos. The event was attended by the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defense Sheikh Mohammad Al-Khaled Al-Sabah, Sheikh Mohammed State Minister for Cabinet Affairs, Sheikh Salman Al-Homoud General Director of Civil Aviation, British Ambassador to Kuwait, other officers and public.

Three Kuwait F18 airplanes, one helicopter, and nine British Hawk T1 airplanes participated in this show. The team presented different aerobatic moves such as the concord, diamond, and different maneuvers by seven airplanes, and then by two airplanes, concluded by collective maneuvers by the complete team.

The team, which flies British-built T1 Hawk fastjets, will have completed more than 4800 shows since their very first show in 1965.


The world’s premier aerobatic display team represent excellence both at home (U.K) and overseas through their display of speed, agility and teamwork.
