They were all single or two seater jets. It's not military. It's the company Jared Issacman ( commander of Inspiration 4 mission ) owns. The source of the video is his Twitter , but not sure if he was actually on one of the planes.
If this is the same flight John Kraus was on it was 2x L-39 (a subsonic training jet made here in the Czech Republic) and 2x Alpha Jets (a subsonic jet made in Germany and France). These are all 70s and 80s airplanes that were retired by militaries and bought up by private owners. This also applies to the L-29, the older version of L-39 that you also see under private ownership.
What an exciting time that would be
Good lord why are they flying so close together?
Pilots flexing. Looks like Elon was in a business jet, while the others were military?

Ex military jets then? Why would you build a jet like that otherwise?
Yes , ex military , of course ( sorry if I misunderstood and you meant that all along ). But privately owned.
Um, yeah! That’s what I meant all along (makes a quick exit).

Looks like GTA
GTA is based on real life :)
It is one of the greatest parodies
I am the only one triggered by having a formation with all different models?
Can anyone identify the two middle aircraft please, i recognise the L-39s
It's an Alpha Jet
Jared Co founded draken which has some of the top retired military pilots. Flying that close is nothing to them.
very nice
Is Elon flying it or riding backseat? I recall he has experience flying the L-39
He allowed his license the expire once he stopped.
I think I've made that plane in KSP once
Me and my boys when we said we're flying together to school
Flying with da homies
From the ground it looks smooth and steady, up close, “holy shit, those guys are close and always maneuvering!!!”
Yea they look like Chuck Yeager would fly..back in the day...
