Description

An insight into operating, flying and maintaining the USAF’s all-weather tactical jet fighter. Considered to be among the most successful of modern jet fighters with 104 aerial combat victories to its credit (with no losses) the McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle twin-engine all-weather tactical jet fighter entered service with the USAF in 1976 and is expected to remain so until 2025. Author Steve Davies has been given privileged access to the F-15 Eagles of the USAF’s 48th Fighter Wing at RAF Lakenheath, Suffolk, and their air and ground personnel, to give readers a stunning insight into operating, flying and maintaining the F-15.
