The Sherdils Aerobatic Team, officially formed in August 1972, is stationed at the Pakistan Air Force Academy in Risalpur.
The team used to fly the T-37 Tweety Bird and over the years has performed mostly nationally at parades, academy graduations, and airshows for foreign dignitaries, including heads of state and military officers.
At Airshow China 2010, the Pakistan Air Force performed aerobatic demonstrations and static display with weapons using three JF-17 Thunder fighters. The JF-17 is a joint Chinese/Pakistan design known as the FC-1 Xiaolong in China developed by the China Aviation Industry Corp (CAIC) and several firms in Pakistan.
