#F15EX EX7 takes its first flight loudly and proudly. This is one of two mission-ready F-15EX Eagle II jets that will be delivered to the Portland Air National Guard.

I didn’t realize F15’s were still a thing. Even if it has a II after it. Interesting.
The first flight of the F-15EX Eagle II represents a significant milestone in aerospace technology and military capabilities. The United States' investment in this new aircraft demonstrates its commitment to maintaining a strong defense posture and supporting its military forces.

awesome. I love reading about this warplane. why the USAF is divesting of these older types is beyond me. obviously, the stealth bug has infected their thinking, evident by the drone and unmanned combat aircraft coming down the pipe. hope to see more great posts about Boeing and the warhorse who keeps making a case for continued relevancy and dominance in the air.

These are so cool. I love the sound of them in the sky. I wasn't aware that they still exist. Awesome.
