A dedicated strike aircraft is better at strike missions than a jack of all trades? Say it ain't so!

The strike eagle stepping into clear a mission too difficult for rhe f 16 and 18 is truly a big bro moment

It’s crazy how much easier the mission seemed with the F15 lol. Was just no contest at all.

The visuals in this video are stunning. The Eagle’s cockpit and externals, plus just the desert terrain. Such a pleasure to look at.

Soon the F15EX will be even more unstoppable 😁

Fox 3 at 9 miles in an F-15E…now you’re just playing with your food! Which is what a good pilot does 😈😎

AMEN! 3rd time the charm with the F15 nothing can escape the eye of the eagle! Man I love the way you put in the technical aspects of the eagle,it is probably the best weapons platform I have seen! Totally amazing!!

6 minutes after the video was posted: best timing just for relax after dinner, after a day at work, with a GS piloting video. :D

streagle my beloved

Yup, when all else fails, break out the F-15 Strike Eagle. 😆

"The F-15 sees all" ... yes. Fact.

Since I was a little kid I have always loved all variants of the Eagle. I know the 5th Gens are fantastic but the F-15 will always be my favourite. Beautiful; adaptable, resilient, deadly. And with a radar that can seemingly pierce the fabric of space-time. What a bird!

A Strike Eagle & a Warthog video B2B? Glorious! Someday I’ll be on DCS, flying was my dream until the recruiter said, “No, you’re just a year or two too old to become an officer and get through flight school however, if you want to get that close to and F-16 your testing suggests you’d be a great flight mechanic.” I can’t believe I passed on that offer. I kick myself every time I think of it. (Just an aging man yelling at clouds here)

Bro is in love with those external tanks.

Oh yeah Shady J 334th Fighting Eagles! The first squadron I was assigned to, although instead of the F15E it was F4E!

content like this is what got me into dcs. how could anyone not want to watch a dude in an f15 dodge every missile like hes been doing it his whole life and not wanna try

Just have to have the right tool for the job. Congrats on a flawless mission. You didn't even get your flight suit dirty. Back at home before the game.

Love those "Precession strike" 😂

That's what the 15th's were made for, find, see, aim and kill.......! Thanks for the video GS

The F15 is clearly the most beautiful Military Plane ever created.

I got baked and drank a 12 pack. Eating a huge meatball sub with cheese and pepperoni while watching this video. Spectacular shit!

Your battlefield and this outro music are amazing, brother!

No wonder they used a bunch of F-15s in Desert Storm, you gotta override the AA & SA capabilities of the bandits with sheer quantitative precision along with the baseline quality that every American Platform comes with.

The Strike Eagle is indeed one of the best multi-role birds ever made. In the 4th gen class of course. The standoff capability of the JDAM is what really won the day for you. If you're flying close enough to a target to get engaged by an SA-13, you are flying too close.

Iron eagle wasn't made with the F15 because nobody even then thought the eagle would be the plucky underdog jet that the movie needed.

As always GS - Awesome video!! Great explanations of what is going on, good mission parameters. Just good stuff. Thanks!!

That f15 radar can look into your soul

7:50 So the Strike Eagle is Isla Fishers character in Wedding Crashers… “Cause I’ll find you!”

Perfect timing, just watched the older video yesterday! Love the F-15.

What doesn't work with brute force will work with more brute force. Awesome video GS, love your Mud Hen videos.

Grandpa buff with the opener

The BUFF dropping those missiles.... They just keep coming.... AAAAAAAnd here's one more.... :D

The ability to generate a high resolution map on the fly (heh, fly) is impressive as shit. I didn't even consider that being one of the functions of a fighter and the amount of use you could get out of it.

Yes i agree the F15 is the greatest aircraft ever made and here in Australia the RAAF should have gotten the F15EX instead of what is becoming a disastous choice the F35.

Right at the start of the video, I imagined the maintenance crew chiefs for the F-18, the F-16 and the F-15E placing bets on whether GS will make it through this mission this time.

damn, best demo of the multirole advantages of this aircraft done in under 15 mins...well done man, that was much more fun than I thought it would be.

Hello, I wanted to tell you, thank you for your content, sir. I recently stumbled onto your videos, and I must say I love the vibe. I legitimately do not play this game, but get fantastic enjoyment out of yours and our shared experience of it. I subscribed. I wish you continued success!

"I've never seen that before..." Love the chuckle at the end! So were you firing AIM's at the enemy AD missiles?

We in the Air Force call them revetments. If they are underground then we call them bunkers. But nice work anyway on this mission!

Should wait and see how Jags and Tornadoes will do when they start to show up...

That's my girl! 9 years maintaining the Eagle, C and E variants.

'The Flying Tennis Court' strikes again!!!!!

Man i have been waiting patiently for this video!

Yes. The F-15 is the greatest.

Absolutely love seeing the F15 content, thanks for all the videos you make man

Oh, these beautiful lags at 11:07. I'm also sometimes experiencing them

Great video. I'd like to see more strike missions such as this. Maybe do a strike in Mali with the Mirage 2000 or Rafale.

Love the strike eagle what a beast plz more strike eagle content

The right tool for the right job!

To be fair, the F-35 is the correct aircraft for this mission. The IDF Airforce strike on Irian three days ago has proved that.

Thanks!

The F-15 radar, spectacular! Why don’t they put that radar into other jets? Size?

That was incredibly close

F/A-18E/F vs F-35C (Fox-2 fight) would be epic to see! Navy vs Navy : Old vs New Day 6

I wonder how the Tomcat fairs in this mission. Would it outperform the Hornet?

GS, I can't get enough of your A-10 and F-15 content!! Do you make any of these missions available for download anywhere?

Amazing stuff as always! Just curious, how are you able to get replay footage so accurate? I know the track system is broken and I find myself struggling to get replays to show me actually dropping ordnance!

Successful mission!!👍👍

Love the vids man

When many of the newer Aircraft came out after the F15 Eagle, Chuck Yeager made a dog fight challenge to any pilot in ANY of the newer aircraft. Not one single pilot accepted his challenge. They all knew not only that was his favorite aircraft, but also knew he had more flight hours and years than any of them did by far. Back then was hoping at least one would try just in being a good sport about it. It was real Aircraft with real weapons that locked on for the kill, but they didn't fire to kill a pilot, it just sent the kill to be recorded. Done in flight training many times.

Can I ask why the airborne hostiles weren't engaging you? At 8-10 miles you'd think they'd be throwing missiles at you too but it seemed like it was only the SAM's putting in work? Thanks for an amazing video, great to see some F15E action!

You even saved the drop tank.😊

awesome machine

Flankers on the ground: what, we are not good enough targets for you?

F15 finest fighter ever built

I mean, the F16 was meant as a cheaper F15 that is also the master of dogfighting, so using the F15 is basically using an F1 car instead of the rally car. I think I saw that the engineers of the F16 remade the F16 after they realized that the mission set would be different as what was initially assumed (aka more general instead of purely dogfighting) and it came out a delta wing with massive capacity for ordinance, but unfortunately the air force wasn't interested in a jet that basically had a very similar set of skills with the F15, so I think only a few test F16XL (I think they were called XL) exist.

It'd be interesting to see how the 16XL would perform in this mission since the strike eagle and the XL were allegedly competing against each other at one time.

"oh shut up F-15 you had to secured your place through extreme violence and being very fast.. wait why was I disrespectful to you?"

I hope your WiSO at least made you a sandwhich.

Fancy that, the Strike Eagle is good at striking targets, who would have guessed 😂 Jokes aside, great flying! You need to have a talk with your bomber crews about what "destroy the SAM net" means, you had missiles chasing you all the way in and all the way out after they "completed" their mission 😆

Long live the Strike Eagle! Thoughts on using the F-35 next?
