Racegoers will be able to enjoy flying and other displays from the Australian Defence Force (ADF) at the  2026 Perth Supercars.  All three Services – Navy, Army, and Air Force – will have a strong presence across the racing weekend.

Flying displays will be featured across all three days of the event, including displays from a Royal Australian Air Force Hawk 127 and Pilatus PC-21 aircraft.

Racegoers are also invited to meet with ADF members and see various displays, including displays from ADF Careers, the Australian Army’s 13^th Brigade, and Royal Australian Navy’s HMAS Stirling.

Members from the Royal Australian Air Force’s No. 79 Squadron and No. 2 Flying Training School will also be on the ground to speak to the flying capability on show.

Noise reduction and the environment are vital considerations in the planning and conduct of military flying. Information on aircraft noise and current flying activities is available at www.defence.gov.au/aircraftnoise or by calling 1300 DEFENCE (1300 333 362).
