If you, like thousands of others, managed to snag tickets to the now sold-out RAF Cosford Air Show, here's a list of aircraft you should expect to see.

If not, head up to a high point and you might be able to catch a glimpse of some of the dozens of planes and helicopters set to take to the skies for the show.

This year will also be the first time that the Couteau Delta will perform at the show. The team is composed of highly skilled pilots from the French Air and Space Force (Armée de l'air et de l'espace) who fly the Mirage 2000D jets, and they are known for their precise and synchronized manoeuvres.

This year is also set to see the first ever UK role demo display of the Lockheed Martin F-35 B Lightning II, flown by RAF pilots.

Among all the planes and helicopters, there will also be display from the RAF Falcons, the UK's premier military parachute display team.
