The F-15E with the tail number 87-173 belongs to the USAF 391st Fighter Squadron (Bold Tigers) and is part of the 366th Fighter Wing. The F-15 series began service in the 1970s and has undergone continuous evolution and upgrades, with the F-15E specifically designed for multi-role combat, featuring exceptional air superiority and ground attack capabilities.
The 391st Fighter Squadron was established in 1943, originally focused on bombing missions. As the nature of warfare changed, the squadron gradually transitioned to fighter operations, participating in numerous conflicts, including World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War, demonstrating outstanding combat effectiveness and flexibility.
The F-15E (Bold Tigers) has participated in several significant military operations, including the Gulf War, the War in Afghanistan, and the Iraq War, where it executed critical air support and precision strike missions, effectively attacking enemy facilities.
The F-15E Strike Eagle is a high-performance multi-role fighter aircraft with exceptional operational capabilities. Its maximum speed is approximately 2.5 Mach (about 2,655 km/h), with a range of up to 2,400 kilometers and the ability to operate at altitudes of 15,240 meters, boasting excellent climb rates and maneuverability.
In terms of armament, the F-15E is equipped with a diverse array of weapon systems. Air-to-air weapons include the AIM-7 Sparrow missile and the AIM-120 Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missile (AMRAAM). For ground attack, it can carry laser-guided bombs such as the GBU-10 and GBU-12, as well as Joint Direct Attack Munitions (JDAM) like the GBU-31 and GBU-32. Additionally, the F-15E is armed with an M61A1 20mm cannon for close-range air combat. These performance characteristics and weapon configurations enable the F-15E to excel in various combat environments.
Since its introduction in 1986, it has played a crucial role in multiple conflicts and continues to update its technology to maintain its competitiveness and reliability in modern warfare.
