This year marks the 50th anniversary since McDonnell Douglas rolled out its iconic first generation of the F-15 eagle. The F-15 was created out of a need to counter the significant threat posed by the USSR’s own extremely capable air superiority fighter, the MiG-25 Foxbat, which could travel at speeds of just over Mach 3.

Since her rollout, the F-15 and her descendants have proved themselves extremely worthy of the title of air superiority fighter, retaining a kill to death ratio of over 104 kills and 0 losses in air to air combat, seeing service in Iraq and Afghanistan, along with the Japanese and Saudi air forces.

The newest generation of Eagle, the Boeing F-15EX, made is debut flight this year and is due to enter service with the United States Air Force in the near future, replacing the older “C” model of the F-15.
