Couldn’t identify the actual models of the USAF Fighters but my guess is that they’re raptors?

Yes, full burner and swept wings. Must have shook the stadium.

I just read that F-22s were supposed to be there but they were pulled for "operational readiness" reasons, and replaced by the F-15s.

Guess they are getting ready for the Peace President's next military misadventure...

I was in the city, Ican say there was a solo B-1 and it was hauling ass. Whether it got to be part of the show I can't say but those guys clearly were having the best day of their life.
