To commemorate America's 250th birthday, the Air Force and the Navy are conducting a joint flyover during Super Bowl LX at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, Feb. 8, 2026.
The formation, featuring two Air Force B-1 Lancers, from Ellsworth Air Force Base, South Dakota, and two F-15C Eagles, from Fresno Air National Guard Base, California, alongside a pair of Navy F/A-18E Super Hornets and two F-35C Lightning IIs, from Naval Air Station Lemoore, California, is a symbol of the nation's journey and independence.
While this flyover features the Air Force and Navy, a powerful symbol of America's airpower and maritime strength, it symbolizes the entire joint force — Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, Space Force and Coast Guard — working together across every domain to defend the nation, safeguarding 250 years of American independence.
A Military District of Washington joint armed forces color guard will
render military honors during the national anthem. This prestigious
interservice team from the capital region provides unparalleled
ceremonial precision and national representation. The service members of
the Air Force and Navy flyover will participate in community outreach
events leading up to game day, including public displays of the
aircraft, search and rescue demonstration and backseat flights on the
F/A-18F Super Hornet with community leaders.
As the nation celebrates the country's 250th birthday throughout 2026,
the joint community outreach efforts throughout the Super Bowl week
demonstrate the joint force's shared history and enduring commitment to
defending freedom and supporting the nation's independence.
At one of the most-watched events in the world, the flyover will be a visible reminder that America's military remains united, ready and dominant — 250 years strong.
