Fighter jets are all about pure high-altitude fencing!!
The Air Force finally caught a chance, definitely going all out to develop an outstanding heavy fighter jet, aiming to occupy all the high-altitude advantages, moving dangerously and suppressing the enemies relentlessly.
Though the outcome is that the R&D costs soared, costing a fortune, not suitable for export, but the F15 has indeed made a name as the 'Eagle of the United States'.
Good news: The Eagle of the United States is the eagle in the sky.
Bad news: The eagle only cares about the enemies in the sky, ground combat can go to hell, not a single pound of its components is designed for ground attack.
In joint military exercise simulations, an F15 can easily smash an F16 in long-range strikes, the F16 can't even see the F15's shadow in beyond-visual-range combat, just turns into a defeated dog.
