America's NEW F-15-EX Dominates Disputed Air Space

What a BEAST the F-15 is. How great was the original design that it has handily lasted this long. Kudos to the original engineering team!

The F-15 is a first ballot hall of fame interceptor. That’s if it ever retires.

The F-35 was designed to share targeting data with other aircraft. The F-15EX is best positioned to receive that data as a missile truck. Adding adaptive cycle engines to increase its fuel efficiency and range would be extremely beneficial to operations in the South China Sea.

Yeah but it must be lost on you because it isn't comparable we don't harass and threaten and steal from and intimate all of our neighbors sooooooooo China patrolling by us for no fucking reason is most certainly a different enough situation to not be comparable lol 😆

Chris, did you know Hedy Lamar, the actress, was the co-inventer of Frequency-Hopping Spread Spectrum technology?

Korean Air, not a U.S. carrier.

How does theF-15 dominate airspace when it does not face the Russian and Chinese planes in combat? Bloody Americans. 'Everyone fears us! Yeah!'

You are a liar. Neither Russia nor China have violated anyone's airspace. The F-15 did not frighten them off. They just refused to enter sovereign airspace lest they start WWIII.

The 747 shot down by the Soviets in 1983 was not American. I was owned and operated by KAL, Korean Air Lines.

"$29,000 per hour of flight, that's like 1/3 of the F-35 at $43,000 an hour" 😂 that's not even half, the F-35 would have to be $58,000 an hour for it to be half my man

These jets are amazing! They may be missile trucks, but they are STILL the best air superiority fighters on the planet. Multi-role is absolutely right, they can do ANYTHING.

Get real please Your f 15 is no match to su35

Like The Bionic 6 million dollar Man they can rebuild it better than before. 😊

It also needs Thrust Vectoring to be a Dominant Fighter, also needs 2 twice the range. It's just a no brainier to build it unless your going to give it all this tech. 🤷 Why Not 🤷

It is actually the most Bad Ass missile truck in the Air & the Fastest. Plus it has a great travel distance. The EX being the New Eagle with state of the Art Technology, Radars & Weapons 😎

It doesn't matter when the F-15 was introduced. If you have a very good foundation,you can upgrade the electronics systems to current cutting-edge status. The F-15 is still greatly respected by our friends and greatly feared by our enemies. The same is true with the A-10 Thunderbolt(Warthog).

Actually the airliner was Korean Air Lines 747 passenger jet. At the time there was speculation the plane was mistakenly thought to be RC-136s Cobra Ball aircraft.

Remember my brother at Eglin Airforce base in FL letting me sit in the cockpit of an F15 Eagle. Fell in love with that fighter then and still love it today. Glad to see it still in use and ready to go when needed.

How long does it take to do a mag dump? 500 rds at 6000 rounds per minute is...um...6000 would be 100/second x 5= 5 seconds. There were 2 F-15's out of Westfield AFB flying racetracks over a Patriot's game on my birthday one year. I sat in a parking lot and watched them for about half an hour. Great birthday. Thanks, Air Force.

The F-15 can carry an F-16 under it 💀

Being honest, when Russian and China is still relying on flankers

Damn all you who talked about how he says things probably feel like diiiiccckkkkssss lol!!!

Western propaganda video to promote their Junkies. 😂😂 selling. Even China produces two times better fighter at the same price range. None will buy their junkies anymore with so high cost.

what if we made the f15s stealth! Holy shit that would be dope

The top speed of an F-15 is not 1,650 mph. It's top speed is 1,918 mph

I don't know why but the Iowa class and the F-15 evoke the same sense of awe and dread, at the same time, in me! Best in the world and absolutely unstoppable, with caveats for reality😅

Yes, it was designed in the 70s, but the thing to remember is aerodynamics doesn't care about when.

wym you pronounce nuclear wrong? Sounded fine

F-22 = graduated but can’t find a job.
F-15 = been with the company for decades and no one what’s to see go.

and it (f15qa---almost the same as the f15ex) have shown recently at the dubai airshow some of its capabilities 🙂

Don't necessarily APPROVE of War Machines, but our planet is a cruel and dangerous place.
I Love the plans REGARDLESS of age... It's Still an Extremely Capable machine -
AND keep the A10

The 2 stealth planes their weaknesses are small bomb load and slow. The other plane that lost the competition for the twin engine stealth plane was way faster.

Im currently an F15E Dedicated crew cheif, and on the logistics and supply end, its fuct, the EX sharing components doesnt mean a damn thing when we're consistently waiting on parts and get them bad out of supply. Our aging F15s are incredibly maintenance heavy now, in my tenure ive watched our FMC rate absolute plummet as these jets are reaching 14k flight hours. it waxes and wanes but has gotten considerably worse in the last year from when I first started working these jets. id say we are 10 years too late for this aircraft to replace the fleet to have the reliability big air force expects out of us

You really are a an average infantry man; aren't you.

The US F-15 is non-existant. The EX is a foreign design, made for the current world reality. Quit touting foreign innovations as America.

Because the F-35 is a GOAT gun compared to the foreign based F-15-EX. Yes it is lost on you!

You don't know how accurate you are. America IS a GOAT gun .

Not American. Saudia Arabian.

you did say "nuclear" correctly. How do think it is pronounced?

With export regulations in effect, a great platform to up-arm NATO / friendly Europeans as well as Pacific Theater security forces/allies such as the Philippines. The Military Industrial complex will always be with us with different forms (tech and hardware platforms).

While we’re on the subject of self improvement (nuclear/nukiller) you also say risk adverse instead of risk averse.

Still love ya though!

Screw Maverick. When are we getting another Iron Eagle?

In addition to the lower cost per-hour for the F-15, because it has more flight hours built into the airframe, it takes those hours off of what the F-35 and 22s would use doing CAP. This lets operators with both F-35 and F-15 to have a regular CAP while still having the elite scramble option in the F-35 and saving those aircraft for when you really do need them.

I bet that number of F-15s goes up, too. There are a lot of reasons why 4.5 gen fighters are good to have around, not the least of which is ubiquity and cost of operation.

Makes you wonder if the F-15 Silent Eagle will get another look from the higher ups, too. I can see conditions where it might necessitate such a thing happening.

The F15 was made in 1972 obviously there's major financial problems in America when we start buying aircraft over 50 years old as modern fighter jets.

I have the same speech impediment. 😂

Its so cool that America doesn't have just 1 badass jet , we have tons of them .
