8. F-15

F-15.jpg
Our number eight fighter is the F-15. It is considered to have "better" features than others - better turning, and better handling. One of the best features of the F-15 fighter is the pulse-Doppler radar system. These jets are capable of both low flying and high flying targets. The advanced electronic warfare system provides threat warnings. It also gives useful data that helps the pilot in making the best choice in any situation. When the Iraqi freedom Operation was just opening, Saddam Hussein did not get his troops up in the air with F-15 fighters flying. It was that intimidating.
