Boeing has released the concept video of its new F-15EX Advanced Eagle fighter aircraft commonly known as Strike Eagle on Steroids.

Boeing posted a short promo video of a new fighter jet on social media pointing that new combat aircraft will be equipped with the World’s fastest computer, Fly-by-wire controls, and leading-edge electronic radar.

The company’s website said the Boeing’s F-15EX is the most cost-effective, ready, advanced solution to meet U.S. Air Force capacity requirements and add capability to the fleet. Driven by Boeing’s active production line, the next-generation jet enables pilots and mechanics to transition in a matter of days as opposed to years while delivering unmatched total life cycle costs.

Complementing other aircraft, the F-15EX enhances the air combat capabilities of the fleet to ensure the U.S. remains ahead of current and emerging threats. With next-generation technologies to provide unrivaled capabilities in a broad spectrum of environments, Boeing’s F-15EX delivers more payload, capacity, and range than any fighter in its class.

The F-15EX will can carry the full array of air-to-air, air-to-ground and maritime strike weapons. The aircraft can engage a multitude of targets on any given mission.

The Advanced F-15’s design architecture facilitates affordable, low-risk integration of new weapons.

The Advanced Eagle will have unmatched weapon station capacity up to 29,500 lbs. of a payload supported by 12 certified air-to-air hardpoints and 15 certified air-to-ground hardpoints.

A fully integrated electronic warfare suite provides a full spectrum of protection and enables the dominant engagement of new and emerging threats. The F-15EX will be able to survive modern integrated air defense systems and seamlessly communicate with other sensors to deliver automated IR countermeasures for enhanced survivability.

Also added that new, more powerful twin engines provide the F-15EX with unrivaled speed and acceleration capabilities, allowing the pilot to get to the target faster.

The 21st-century cockpit provides real-time access to battlefield information and enhances the pilot’s understanding of the environment to reduce workload, speed decision-making and enhance mission management.

On September 10, members of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense appropriations subcommittee recommended $992.4 million for 8 F-15EX aircraft, of which 2 test aircraft are funded in research, development, testing, and evaluation (RDT&E), Air Force.

Boeing also said that in support of the National Defense Strategy, the United States Air Force must purchase an additional 24 combat aircraft per year. F-15EX is the only way to rapidly and affordably meet the Air Force’s critical requirements.
