Great Video! My dad retired from Barnes (BARNESTORMERS ) 104th FW/131st FS Westfield Massachusetts right before the F-15s came from Otis ANG Base…he was in charge of egress on the A-10A retired 26 years Aerospace Chief..these guys fly fast and low when they are leaving and coming back from missions usually over the Atlantic ,air refueling with Maine or NH Air Guard and dog fighting…now by 2026 they will have 18 F-35s
abs fantastic footage & display,F-15's never grow old,who needs thrust vectoring or a leaf blower(F-35) when you have the real deal in the skies,thunder from the gods,bring on the F-15EX
Man i wish they never stopped making the C. Its just soo good. The f15ex is just a modernized strike eagle. Just as heavy too. The c was light and nimble, able to accelerate quickly too. If an ex gets into a knife fight with a flanker its probably gonna lose sadly. The C was much more competitive to the flanker
What the hell are you talking about?. Nothing!!!.... has been downgraded; and the modifiers of my AIR SUPERIORITY QUEEN haven't missed any checkpoints!!!. YOU HAVE NO REASON TO SPEAK ILL OF THE F-15 E.X. ALL UPGRADES HAVE BEEN A+ ♠️THE VANITY ADDICT♠️
WRONG! Have you seen how the F15QA flies with its new full time fly by wire? The QA is the early version of the EX, the QA flies like no other F15 in history, it flies like a F18 at slow speed with power to burn. An old F15C will be no match for a F15EX after the merge lol. People high under-estimate the composite materials being put into the EXs airframe making it 3 times as tough as the old A and C frames. If the old C's tried to fly like the F15QA did at Dubai they would've come back with tail stress fractures lol.
And it can go 2.5 Mach, the F-15C's are just now being phased out for the new F-22's. This is still a potent air superiority fighter. They will make a great back up if needed.
Really? I was wondering to myself while watching this footage whether or not the aerobatic maneuvers were approved. I was under the impression the USAF got rid of the “official” F-15 demonstration teams quite a while back now.
