The whole purpose of those flybys is to glamorize and advertise the same planes they use to drop bombs.
In many other countries, their military acrobatics teams don't even use true military jets.
New Zealand's Black Falcons use propeller-based trainers. Japan's Blue Impulse team uses Kawasaki T-4 based trainers. Britain's Red Arrows and Finland's Midnight Hawks use BAE Hawk trainers. Australia's Roulettes use turboprop trainers. Canada's snowbirds use Canadair Tutor trainers.
