Interesting, but on the other hand I wouldn’t be surprised if they clamp down on using these, given the confusion.
It was released by the National Guard! It was accepted on several bug reports! Cut it out! You’re not going to prison

shooting down drones doesn’t require advanced ordnance
Keeping missiles that old in inventory does cost money though.

I have it
All 18 were delivered by December 2000 testing was concluded in 2002
"The APG-63(V)2 OTP 2 program proved to be a successful upgrade to the F-15C. All test objectives were accomplished and the program was completed on time and under budget. The real success of the program was summarized by one of the operational test pilots who had flown all variants of the F-15. He came back from the test sortie and stated in the debrief, “This is the radar that God meant for the F-15 to have.” "
So nothing new then. Guess I will wait for the relevant docs to declassify.
Did the f-15 or f-2 have AESA first?

F-15C was first into service with it.
And it’s not even close.

It turns out that I was wrong. The first aircraft in service was the F-15C with the AN/APG-63V2 in 2000 and the F-2 came shortly after in 2002
