The f15e we have in game is the legacy f15e but its gone thru Modernization, step by step…like swapping from the 220 to the 229 engines updating the computing and avionics which allow it to carry more modern weapons than there were when it was first introduced. Also received the dragon eye pod lantirn pod and the SNIPER POD(should be able to carry both but doesnt in game).Some f15e do have the EPAWSS system (The first two operational F-15Es equipped with EPAWSS were delivered to RAF Lakenheath in January 2025).
refer to this link;
This are some notable upgrades going upto the RADAR MODERNAZATION PROGRAM ,which spawns the F15E RMP(am assuming the first 2 f15e with EPAWSS are equiped AND is from the RMP program…so what is the F15E RMP.
The RMP replaces the F15E legacy apg-70 mechanical radar with the apg-82(V)1 which is an aesa radar.
More modern retrofit F15Es include the EPAWSS system.
What does the EPAWSS DO…?.
EPAWSS provides a comprehensive, 360-degree shield for the aircraft. It consolidates and vastly improves upon the functions of three legacy systems (the ALR-56C RWR, ALQ-135 jammer, and ALE-45 countermeasures dispenser)
EPAWSS system is a which offers 360-degree coverage detection of threats to the aircraft its equipped with the ability to detect what type of threat it is and dispense the appropriate countermeasure for it . This includes both offensive and defensive jamming to confuse enemy radar and the intelligent dispensing of chaff and flares. Except the jamming part of the EPAWSS it should be implemented in the game as a MAWS system until jamming is add/implemented in the Game, then its full functionality should be implemented.
The RMP programs first implementation on a f15e was in 2014 and the retrofits tho the f15e fleets started in 2016. We do have the AESA radars in game so we know how they work irl and in game.The change from the legacy apg-70 to the apg-82(V)1 is what we know as RMP…I do believe we should see this plane before the f15ex probably the next update with the aim 120Ds instead of another hornet.
