F-15 Eagle: History, Performance & Discussion

Hasn’t even been a week yet lol.

But I don’t think so, you can check on bug report site

Made a report regarding F-15E top speed… which undeperforms
aswell considering that it is OPERATIONAL limit, not that it could theoreticly go…

This report isnt correct based on the data i know. For standard day conditions, clear at 40klb, it does 2.32 Mach as its top speed and this gently decreases with further altitude increase.

F-15C should be 300 kilos lighter

For some reason gaijin believes that is weight without “CFT internal equipment”. Despite McDonnell product support digest states that all F-15Cs from very first have CFT equipment integrated

You could only do 82v1 for the E sadly

Sadly?
F-15E is better than any F-15(besides the I), although i love the C, the E is simply better. With the arrival of the 9X for ground i can only expect them on planes by this winter update. There goes the need to turn. Hell, give me the EX. Turning better than the E and with more missiles.

well i would also like to see it on the C, i dont mean E is bad i mean its sad theres only one variant where you can ask for the radar to be swapped to 82v1 (everything else has it from the start)

We can always ask AESA radar equipped F-15C version.

Already too late
But with double pylon racks - maybe

With the JHMCS present on the C, we can request the AN/APG-63(V)3 and the dual racks because muh SU-27

Those double racks aren’t from the F-15EX btw, it has a max of 12 missiles

The max, and what it is operationally cleared for, are two very distinct things. The maximum we know an F-15 can carry is up to 22, MAYBE 24 in a war thunder-esque loadout. Obviously it is unrealistic to see them equipped with so many in real life.

If you give it the AMBER racks that were proposed for the F-15C 2040 then sure maybe, but that wasn’t proposed for the F-15EX and Boeing themselves say it carries a maximum of 12 AMRAAM. If we’re using that logic then the F-15C can get 16 AMRAAMs right now.
