The Indian Air Force's flypast was one of the numerous firsts seen at the spectacular Republic Day parade. The grand finale featured the largest flypast ever, with 75 Indian Air Force aircraft performing a variety of formations. For the first time, the nation felt like they were in the cockpit while watching the Republic Day flypast on their televisions, smartphones, or laptops. The footage from the cameras onboard the planes that took part in the flypast provides an insight into what the pilots witnessed from their cockpits. At the flypast, vintage and modern aircraft such as the Rafale, Sukhoi, Jaguar, Mi-17, Sarang, Apache, and Dakota performed various formations, including the Rahat, Meghna, Eklavya, Trishul, Tiranga, Vijay, and Amrit.
