McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle
The McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) F-15 Eagle is an American twin-engine, all-weather tactical fighter designed by McDonnell Douglas to gain and maintain air supremacy in aerial combat. It is among the most successful modern fighters, with over 100 victories and no losses in aerial combat with the majority of the kills by the Israel Air Force.〔Davies and Dildy 2007, inside cover.〕〔Spick 2000, p. 127.〕 Following reviews of proposals, the United States Air Force selected McDonnell Douglas' design in 1967 to meet the service's need for a dedicated air superiority fighter. The Eagle first flew in July 1972, and entered service in 1976. The Eagle has since been exported to Israel, Japan, and Saudi Arabia, among other nations. The F-15 was originally envisioned as a pure air superiority aircraft. Its design included a secondary ground-attack capability〔("PS 940 F-15 Armament Handbook, Oct-1979." ) ''scribd.com.'' Retrieved: 29 November 2012.〕 that was largely unused. The design proved flexible enough that an all-weather strike derivative, the F-15E Strike Eagle, was later developed, entering service in 1989. The F-15 Eagle is expected to be in service with the U.S. Air Force past 2025.〔Tirpak, John A. ("Making the Best of the Fighter Force." ) ''Air Force magazine'', March 2007.〕 Newer models are still being produced for foreign users. The F-15 production line is set to end in 2019, 47 years after the type's first flight.〔("South Korean fighter order: AF backs F-35." ) ''Aviationweek.com''.
