The Swifts aerobatic performance team was established in 1991, carrying the responsibility of demonstrating new aircraft characteristics as well as giving flight shows.

On May 6, 2016, the 25th anniversary of the team’s first performance, the team performed maneuvers on lightweight MiG-29 fighters.

The highly difficult aerial aerobatics such as “crossing,” “arrow,” and “pyramid” were displayed on Nov 4, 2014 at Airshow China.
