A U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds F-16 Fighting Falcon rockets into a knife-edge climb, its afterburner scorching the air into a shimmering heat ripple and a razor-thin smoke trail as thousands watch from below during the 2026 Grissom Air & Space Expo at Grissom Air Reserve Base, Indiana, Aug. 30, 2026. The Thunderbirds closed out the base's first air show since 2019 with a full-throttle display that had the crowd's eyes locked on the sky. (U.S. Air Force photo by Master Sgt. Oz Suguitan/Released)
