Just realised that on static aircraft display at Singapore Airshow 2012 will be a RSAF IAI Heron I

In keeping with theme of SA, did anyone notice how USAF seemed to have pulled out of the static display list? They were previously listed but now seem to have disappeared... :think:
Any reasons why?

[erkuan]

[erkuan]

Is this a MD-11 ?

IIRC they'll still be here along with a F-22 Raptor.

Is this a MD-11 ?

Yup, MD-11F.

 

[buhweet]

I don't know if they will want to send us an F-22.
Remember what happened to the B-1B they sent a couple of years ago (2008?).
Didn't it crash land in Guam?
Previously after AA92 one of the Harriers crashed in Malaysia, killing the pilot.
