What aircraft will the blue angles and thunder birds fly?

I saw a really neat photo on another page.

and it made we wonder if both the navy and the AF will choose the same plane. the options are.

AF:
1. F-15
2. F-35
3. F-18E
4. F-22

For the navy its

1. F-18E
2. F-35

Do you predict both services will choose the F-35?
what was the criteria when the F-16 was chosen?

Lockheed Martin F-16C/D Fighting Falcon (Block 52)
In the 2009 show season the Thunderbirds transitioned to an updated version of the F-16 fighter. The Block 52s have an upgraded avionics package that brings the Thunderbird fleet into alignment with the rest of the worldwide F-16 fleet. Additionally, the more powerful Pratt & Whitney F100-PW-229 engine adds an additional 3,600 lbf of thrust. This in turn increases the maximum allowable gross weight for ground handling, taxi, takeoff and in-flight maneuvers by nearly 5,000 lbf.

I noticed the af uses the block 52 now
