In 1979, production of this single seat fighter hit 385 planes. Since its inception, this aircraft has worn the crown as the world's best air superiority fighter. This fighter can reach speeds of 1650 m.p.h. and a range of 1250 miles. Cannons, missiles and bombs are its main weapons.
Designed to meet US Air Force requirements for an air superiority fighter to replace the F-4 Phantom, the F-15 Eagle first flew on July 27, 1972. Following reviews of proposals, the United States Air Force selected McDonnell Douglas's design in 1969 to meet the service's need for a dedicated air superiority fighter. Since entering service in 1976, it is among the most successful modern fighters, with over 100 victories and no losses in aerial combat, with the majority of the kills by the Israeli Air Force. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
