| Video Discription | It's an accomplishment this wing is rightly proud of -- the first operational F-15EX was delivered to the Oregon Air National Guard's 142nd Wing at Portland on June 5, 2024, before any active-duty Air Force units. The 142nd Wing is now the first operational unit to have the F-15EX Eagle II in the entire Air Force. Tail number 008 is seen on arrival. The F-15EX is described in these excerpts from an Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) report: The F-15EX is a two-seat, twin-engine, multi-role fighter aircraft. It is a derivative of the Qatari F-15QA, which is a derivative of the U.S. Air Force F-15E Strike Eagle. The F-15EX inherits modern advances such as “fly-by-wire” flight controls, dual Digital Helmet Mounted Cueing Systems, a large touchscreen display, and additional improvements such as the Eagle Passive Active Warning and Survivability System for electronic warfare. Although the aircraft is multi-role capable, the U.S. Air Force intends to use the F-15EX with a single pilot, primarily in an air superiority role, for the near term. Units equipped with the F-15EX will provide offensive counter- air, cruise-missile defense, and defensive counter-air capabilities, including escort of high-value airborne assets. The F-15EX can employ a full complement of air-to-air weapons and has two additional weapons stations compared to the F-15E. In the near term, the F-15EX will have a very limited capability to employ precision-guided, air-to-surface munitions. The Air Force intends to procure 104 F-15EX aircraft, training systems, and support equipment over 6 procurement lots. Thanks for watching the Airailimages Channel.
