U.S. Air Forces in Europe-Air Forces Africa will participate in the Paris Airshow 2025 at Le Bourget Airport, France, June 16-22. 

The 55th Paris Air Show is the world’s largest international Air and Space trade show, held every two years in Paris. 

U.S. military presence at the Paris Air Show is an opportunity for the United States to demonstrate its leadership in aerospace technologies while supporting various armament procurement exhibitions. U.S. participation in the Paris Air Show also highlights how the U.S. presence in Europe strengthens alliances that fuel jobs, trade and investment in the United States. 

USAFE-AFAFRICA aircraft scheduled to participate in the event include the F-15E Strike Eagle and F-35A Lightning II from the 48th Fighter Wing, RAF Lakenheath, England.  

In addition to USAFE-AFAFRICA aircraft, the U.S. Air Force will send KC-46A Pegasus, C-17 Globemaster III, C-130J Super Hercules, and MQ-9 Reaper aircraft from bases across the United States. The U.S. Air Force F-35A Lightning II demonstration team is also scheduled to perform an aerial demonstration during the tradeshow and public days.
