"You can own the skies with this masterpiece of aerial combat machinery, but for a ground attack, you'll find it lacking."
Harry's description of this plane in the shop.

The F-15C Eagle is an aircraft that appears in both Airforce Delta Storm and Airforce Delta Strike. In the latter, it is used by Elbow squadron, and can be used by John Rundal.

Origin (Real-Life)[]

The F-15C Eagle is an American fighter jet created in the late 1960s to serve as an all-weather tactical fighter. It entered service in the 1970s, with versions of the craft still being made to this day for various factions, such as the Japanese Air Self-Defense Force. It is one of the most well-known aircraft to be created. The design of the craft was flexible enough to lead to the F-15E Strike Eagle being developed, which is essentially an improved strike variant of the Eagle.

Design[]

What do we need to say? When people think "Twin-engined, twin-vertical stabilizer craft", this aircraft's recognizable design is usually pretty high on the list. We need say no more.

Performance[]

Airforce Delta Storm[]

A very good early-game plane, unlocked by completing an early-game mission. However, this is the worst of the Eagles you can obtain; and you can obtain the other two Eagles VERY soon. The biggest problem with this plane is the range; 2 range isn't great. And the other Eagles help rectify this issue greatly, so... This plane will serve you for the brief amount of time available until you find the other two Eagles.

Airforce Delta Strike[]

It's one of John's stronger performers. Really, this plane has direct competition with the Su-27SMK "Flanker B" - The pros and cons of the planes are apparent. The Su-27SMK has better thrust and a superior special weapon, but worse speed. The F-15C has... better speed. Erm. And you can unlock the Su-27SMK earlier than this since this plane is tied to Phase 7... So the Su-27SMK is arguably the better craft thanks to those factors. But this is still a very strong performer nonetheless!

Trivia[]

  • Either due to rushed modeling or developer oversight, Airforce Delta Storm's model of the F-15C features a copilot/WSO model when this aircraft is supposed to be a single seater.
