McDonnell Douglas F-15E Strike Eagle Pilot's Flight Operating Instructions -- Un

Developed as a derivative of the F-15 Eagle air superiority fighter, McDonnell Douglas' (now Boeing) F-15E Strike Eagle has a radically different mission: to launch deep interdiction missions without additional fighter support or jamming. Since its first flight in 1986, the F-15E has performed a variety of missions including deep strikes against high-value enemy targets in Operation Desert Storm and Operation Allied Force, and providing close air support. It can carry over 23,000 pounds of payload, including the JDAM, AIM-9X, AGM-130 and AMRAAM, and is equipped with an Active Electronically Scanned Array radar system. With its service life expected to reach to 2035 and beyond, the F-15E can be said to serve as the backbone of the U.S. Air Force. Its unparalleled range, persistence and weapons load make it indispensable. Developed in 1990, this 660-page, unclassified F-15E pilot manual is a wonderful resource for museum docents, historians, modelers, gamers, and anyone else who ever wondered what it would be like to sit in the cockpit of the Strike Eagle.<br><br><b>Author:</b> United States Air Force<br><b>Publisher:</b> Periscope Film LLC<br><b>Published:</b> 08/14/2010<br><b>Pages:</b> 670<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 2.88lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 10.00h x 8.00w x 1.34d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9781935700432<p></p>
