History:
The McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) F-15E Strike Eagle was developed in the 1980s as a two-seat strike fighter derived from the F-15 air superiority platform. Combining long-range precision strike capability with the unmatched performance of the F-15 design, the Strike Eagle became a cornerstone of US Air Force operations. It saw extensive use during the Gulf War and has since participated in numerous conflicts, including operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Known for its ability to carry a heavy payload of bombs and missiles while maintaining air combat dominance, the F-15E remains one of the most versatile and combat-effective aircraft in the world. Constantly upgraded with modern avionics and systems, it continues to be a frontline fighter for the USAF.
