Great stuff... the F-15E was surely one of the most complete and competent warplanes ever produced.
Amazing that Boeing managed to keep the line alive through export sales of upgraded variants.
I spoke with an F-15SG driver from Singapore at Avalon Air Show a few years back, and he confirmed theirs was the most potent F-15 in the skies.
Boeing leveraged this, and against all the new-fangled Stealth fighters produced the F-15 EX for Uncle Sam at virtually no R&D cost.
It's a rare occurrence when a weapons system actually make financial sense too.
Cool series, JK

Great work JK.
I will Never ..ever, forget watching two of those RSAF F-15s departing Ohakea after an airshow.
Took off, flew a wide circuit ...came back straight down the runway at maybe 100 feet ..... and pulled up to the vertical ...and vanished, just the sound remained.

Aharon, these are the 'supertrees' of the Marina Bay Park: https://www.gardensbythebay.com.sg/en/a ... grove.html
Very spectacular in real life, especially with the lightshow in the evening.
