One of the new aircraft to arrive with the latest War Thunder update ...and lots of paints for it already.

The first one to fly, minus the nose probe which isn't modeled.

The record breaker....the "Streak Eagle" I may be wrong, but I think it still holds a few records.

The Streak Eagle broke all the records set by the mighty F-4.
I believe that the Streak Eagle still holds a few records, not sure which ones. The Soviets developed the MiG-25 to combat the F-15 as well as the SR-71.
During the Battle of The Bekaa Valley an Israeli F-15 was scrambled to intercept an 'unknown' aircraft... it couldn't catch the Foxbat.
Your Bitburg F-15... I would very much doubt that a fighter would carry such a load as they were at the "sharp end" of European Ops...basically the same as the RAF QRA.
Bitburg Eagles were tasked with intercepting any aircraft that "strayed" into their airspace.
Otherwise , all very good shots.

Thank you for looking Sir, and for your comments.
Note to self... ensure load-outs equal location and role :ph43r:
