Shocked The World: F-15EX Fires First Missile Successfully​


The F-15EX is a ready-now replacement for the F-15C that includes best-in-class payload, range and speed. Designed to deliver value to the U.S. Air Force, the F-15EX will be a backbone fighter for the service – not just today, but for the next several decades. Boeing engineers created hundreds of digital aircraft before cutting any metal, and flew thousands of hours before our first test flight. The result is an aircraft with a digital backbone, open system architecture and the capacity to carry hypersonic weapons, making it a key element of the U.S. Air Force’s tactical fighter fleet. The F-15EX “detected the drone using onboard sensors, acquired a weapons-quality track, and launched the missile at the target” as part of the test, the Air Force announced in a release. The shot was then determined to be a success.
 
Cool. Now lets go drop some shit on some brown people for a live dead test.
i have always said that to stop the invasion of diseased illegals crossing the southern border bringing in all those drugs with them, is the either blow them up, or if they are flying them in, is to shoot them down. That would stop the War on Drugs real quick.

We've built these for other countries,,,,,,not a shock at all.

Not the EX. But we did expand on the SA series that was exported. The EX is quite an upgrade from the F-15SA and has systems that are not to be exported.
 
Leak the secrets and kill the public. Sounds like a plan.

Much of the Avionics will be classified. I worked around the F-15A and some of the Radar was repaired and maintained inside a vault. One of the major advantages our F-15E has today is the ability to pick up anything the Russians or the Chinese have at at longer a range they they can. The exception to this might be the Mig-31. The F-15EX, with it's extreme amount of AA missiles, it's going to start slinging missiles long before anything else except the M-31. What the extreme range of the radar on the F-15EX won't be advertised anymore than we did on the F-15A.

Actually, Su-35S and Su-57 also can use R-37 (AA-13) with range more than 300 km.

At Langley AFB our unit was the first C/D's to put conformal fuel tanks on the jet, thus getting ready for the E models. Instead of having to refuel inbetween Virginia and Nevada, it was a round trip on one fill up.

AT Bit bitburg, GE, we were the first forward operational F-15 Wing. The only thing our A model had in common with an E was the outside skin. We also enjoyed the highest operational rate. We had a whopping 33% generation rate. The main problem was all weapons systems (including the gun) was dependent on the Radar., If you lost some or all of your Radar, you were flying a very expensive Air Uber service.

Spangdolem (sp) had F-4s with a 95% generation rate. On the first time we went head to head with them on a war game, they did their 95% and we did our 33% rate. They were launching flights where, maybe, only one had working radar so they loaded him heavily with Aim-7s. The others without radar relied on the one radar bird to find the target, tell them where to look and then they used their Aim-9 seeker heads to launch missiles and a simple Weaver Rifle scope for their gun sights. After all that, it was determined that it was a draw. While the F-4E had a numeric advantage of 3 to 1, the F-15A enjoyed it's 4 to one kill rate. Just before the C came out, the radar was changed and the weapons systems were able to delink from the radar.

I hope they get it deployed before china invades Taiwan

or before chinese engineers working at boeing steal the blueprints

We had jets from Bitburg come to Langley one day, couldnt see them until they were almost on the runway. Those were some dirty birds.

We had a motto at Langley, a clean jet is a happy jet, we used Spray 9(409 for the air force) and we kept our jets so clean, you could see them for miles. It was one of the stupidest things the 1st tac fighter wing did.

You can't be ready to fight and stay purty all the time.
