Special clip I filmed at the MAF nearly ten years ago I reckon. Features a single F15C Eagle accompanied by a pair of P51 Mustangs in the 'Heritage Flight'. I love these mixed formations - the sight and sound is breathtaking. It illustrates how large the F15C - in some respects the modern equivalent to the WW2 P51 - actually is.

Extract from a documentary showing how technology is helping defeat heat-seeking air-to-air missiles includes low-level jets like F16 and Meteor etc.

F16 and F15E Launch From Mildenhall - talk about being in the right place at the right time. The F15E's pitch up is breathtaking - and the camcorder was working! Put it on and turn up the volume!

The initial version, designated F-15A for the single-seat configuration and F-15B for the twin-seat, would be powered by new Pratt & Whitney F100 engines to achieve a combat thrust-to-weight ratio in excess of 1 to 1. A proposed 25mm Ford-Philco GAU-7 cannon with caseless ammunition was dropped in favor of the standard M61 Vulcan gun due to development problems. The F-15 retained conformal carriage of 4 Sparrow missiles like the Phantom. The fixed wing was put onto a flat, wide fuselage that also provided an effective wing lifting surface. Some questioned if the zoom performance of the F-15 with Sparrow missiles was enough to deal with the new threat of the high-flying MiG-25 Foxbat; its capability would eventually be demonstrated in combat. The F-15 has a "look down, shoot down" radar that can distinguish low-flying moving targets from ground clutter. The F-15 would use computer technology and new controls and displays to lower pilot workload and require only one pilot to save weight. Unlike the F-14 or F-4, the F-15 has only a single canopy frame with clear vision forward. The USAF introduced the F-15 as "the first dedicated USAF air superiority fighter since the F-86 Sabre.[1] The F-15 would be favored by customers such as Israel and Japan, and the development of the F-15E Strike Eagle would produce a strike fighter that would replace the F-111. However, criticism from the fighter mafia that the F-15 was too large to be a dedicated dogfighter, and too expensive to procure in large numbers to replace the F-4 and A-7, led to the Light Weight Fighter (LWF) program, which led to the USAF F-16 Fighting Falcon and the middle-weight Navy F/A-18 Hornet. , the F-15 in all air forces has an air-to-air combined kill record of 104 kills to 0 losses in air combat (at least as confirmed by its users, and excluding the case of a Japanese F-15J that shot down another F-15J in 1995 due to an AIM-9 Sidewinder safety malfunction during air-to-air combat training with live weapons). The US and Israel maintain that to date, the air superiority versions of the F-15 (F-15A/B/C/D models) have never been shot down by an enemy. Over half of the F-15's kills were made by Israeli Air Force pilots. In 1979–81 during Israeli-Lebanese border disputes, F-15As downed 13 Syrian MiG-21 'Fishbeds' and 2 Syrian MiG-25 'Foxbats', the latter being the aircraft the F-15 was designed to kill. In the 1982 Lebanon War, the Israeli F-15s shot down 40 Syrian jet fighters (23 MiG-21 'Fishbeds' and 17 MiG-23 'Floggers') and 1 Syrian SA.342L Gazelle helicopter.

Vôo do Red Eagle no Rio de Janeiro

United States Airforce F-15's and F-16's putting the hurt on those that oppose.

AWACS at Waddington - failry long piece shows inside of this incredible plane as it controls various NATO planes such as F15 and ADV Tornado.

The Boeing F-15 Eagle and the F-16 Falcon are both all-weather tactical fighters designed from the ground-up for air superiority, used my the USAF and their allies.

try again , some great aerial shots , explosions , demolitions ....usual stuff

combat training

F15 & P51s Heritage Flight at Mildenhall encore - from the left. See how overcast the sky is. MAF was always subject to the variable weather of East Anglia. I have been there when it was a monsoon one year and scorching the next.

Heritage Flight F15C lands - I think it was borrowed from nearby Lakenheath - notice the high angle and airbrake. Gives a nice view of the car park too!

Terrible!!
