F-15 Eagle: History, Performance & Discussion

EGBU-24 on F/A-18C Late already.

I didn’t see “mounting them in service” as criteria. If it didn’t even require any software I fail to see why it couldn’t be added…

If that is the criteria we might even see the JSOW for them too, as it is technically possible.

The final step included incorporation of a new senes of advanced weapons such as Joint
Standoff Weapon (JSOW) and Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) Again, the Navy
determined the Grumman proposal to be too expensive as a whole and restructured its F14 upgrade program to include only portions of the program, which they called Block I


In support of air-to-ground attack missions, the F-14D can employ unguided and
guided munitions Unguided weapons include Mk-80 series general-purpose bombs,
cluster munitions, mines, and airbome and Marine flares. Guided weapons include laser-guided bombs (LGB), and recently cleared MIL-STD-I760 interface class weapons, including GBU-24E/B, JDAM and JSOW.

Idk, everything I have says 2008 for air force and navy a bit later

Does anybody here have the empty weight of the F15EX?



If Su-30SM can get double rack from Su-35S, why F-15C can’t get rack from F-15EX?
We even have something.

so if F15A was stripped down and set time to climb records what if you strip down f15E and tried as it has better ones

F-15E missing bombs?
The bol pods??
The missing range on the radar???
It is still competitive don’t get me wrong but these are some nice HISTORICAL things to see.
(and they won’t make the eagle op either)

Which one? GBU-53? Or LJDAM/EPaveway?

It’s hard to prove that they are on the F-15E. But… Twin pylons for the Su-30 are no less hard to prove.

They would be covered either as the discrete ALE-58, or integrated into the LAU-128B/A.

The LAU-128B/A includes the AN/ALE-58 BOL Countermeasures Dispenser integrated into the launcher.

Yeah, I know about it. But we still need to prove that the F-15E carried BOL. Alas. We have a strange thing with BOL. The F/A-18C should have them too, but as you can see from the dev…

The above linked Marvin Engineering products pages references both the LAU-128B/A & F-15E by name.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Than idk. Maybe one billion of chaffs is too OP.

For dev, this site does not seem to be an argument. “All photos show F-15A/C”. Funny.

Saab’s website also mantioned just “F-15”.

Why not both?

GBU-53 literally TOO OP for now. I think if add for example… 1 pylon or maybe 2 pylons with it for test this bombs.

About Laser+GPS… It must be on F-15E. It is not some OP thing. Almost all nations have such bombs already, with the exception of… Sweden, Israel and Japan.
