Which fighter jet is faster: F-15 Eagle or F-16 Fighting Falcon? The F-15 is faster, with a top speed over Mach 2.5. The F-16 tops out around Mach 2.0, but it's more maneuverable at lower speeds.

The F-15EX Eagle II is the most advanced version of the F-15 platform and is quickly outpacing its older “siblings.” The Air Force has more than 200 F-15E Strike Eagles in service.

The twin-engine McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle on display is a tribute to Brian McVeigh, Airman 1st Class, Eglin AFB, who served as a crew chief in the 58th Fighter Squadron.

The F-15 Eagle is an outlier even among advanced fighter jets, moving so swiftly it has never been shot down in combat. Here's how fast it can fly.

In addition, the F-15 Strike Eagle is armed with a 20 mm (0.787 in) M61A1 Vulcan 6-barreled Gatling cannon, with 500 rounds of either M-56 or PGU-28 ammunition.

The AN/ALQ-250 EPAWSS achieved the Initial Operational Capability in early 2024 and is currently being fielded on the new F-15EX Eagle II and retrofitted on the F-15E Strike Eagle.
