RP, I don't know the exact limits currently imposed on the A but I thinks it is 5g or thereabouts. The AOA is straight up 50.

Looking at the "display" it's not aerobatic, so this is probably a simple role demonstration routine - i.e no dedicated F-35A display pilot. As the envelope available expands to 9g, I'm confident that more aggressive manoeuvres will be introduced. Raptor display wasn't as punchy in the early days as it is today.
