I caught wind of this, but I don't appear to find the F-35C, EA-18G, or even the F4U on their "Featured Perfomers" page. They either remove the performer or that was just some mistake.
It looks like it was just a mistake on the website link post. The Great Tennessee Airshow was mentioned but the Great Florida Airshow website was posted.

Here is the "Great Tennessee" website:

Surprised there's no talk about VFA-122 doing the demo at El Centro this past weekend... I haven't seen the TACDEMO in a few years, but it looked a lot more aggressive with some maneuvers I don't remember seeing before. Really enjoyed seeing the Rhino put through her paces again.

They have started the 2021 season off strong but they still haven't announced a completed schedule... A bit of a a slow start to this year's season.

Maybe misreading your response, but my main point was that 122 performed an airshow demo when it's been pretty solidified that 106 is the only Rhino TACDEMO team.

We checked into this and were told that VFA-122 will be doing demos this year after all (and that the schedule is being finalized)

I was the one that misinterpreted what you were saying before. My bad, sorry for the confusion.
