Before the parade takes place at the Padang, there will be a special segment called "Fly Our Flag." This segment involves two CH-47SD Chinook helicopters, each accompanied by two AH-64D Apache helicopters. Together, they will soar through the skies, proudly carrying and displaying the State Flag across different areas of Singapore.

In addition, there will be an impressive display known as the RSAF55 Island Flypast (RIF). This display involves an A330 Multi-Role Tanker Transport (MRTT) aircraft, accompanied by six F-16D+ and three F-15SG fighter aircraft. They will perform a synchronized flypast, gracefully maneuvering in the vicinity of the five Heartland sites, showcasing the strength and precision of the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF).
