Team August 1th "PLAAF"
The August 1st aerobatic team (Ba Yi aerobatic team) initially equipped the fleet with JJ-5 fighter-trainer jets,[citation needed] a Chinese version of Russian made MiG-17. In later years[when?] the JJ-5s were replaced by Chengdu J-7EB,[citation needed] then again was replaced by the newer J-7GB (2001). There are about 8 aircraft in the fleet, but only 6 are set for any airshow.[citation needed] In May 2009, the team upgraded their jets to the much more advanced Chengdu J-10 multirole fighter
