The development of the F15 started out in the 1960s when the air force decided it was time that a new fighter jet was developed to replace the rapidly old components of the F4 phantom. When it was originally created the F4 Phantom was one of the most multipurpose aircraft in the Armed Forces is solved many problems with its multi strike capabilities. Nonetheless, the air force began to see the need for a pure air combat only jet fighter to follow the line of fighters before it like the p51 mustang.

The start of the development began with the FX program. The fighter experimental program, however it wasn't long until the Russians came and demonstrated the new MiG-25 in 1967 before the air force realised what it had to compete with and the FX program was closed and replaced by the F-15 program.

Design work for the F15 began in 1969 when the company McDonnell Douglas won the contract to build fighter aircraft for the American air force. But the air force really wanted was a plane that could be king of the skies in a purely air to air role. The air force was satisfied with its current air to ground capabilities. As such they envision the F15 being sent up in the sky as escort wings that flew to protect other valuable air assets.
When the F-15 finally rolled off the production line it proved to be a very big improvement over the previous phantom aircraft. Many of the core air systems in the F-15 was a lot easier to maintain and then to service. It had a whopping number of quick access hatches that allowed entry to vital sub systems of the aircraft and the net result of all this innovation was an aircraft that could be refuelled and re armed in a mere 12 minutes, almost 50% faster than the F4.

The F-15 made its first maiden voyage to the Edwards Air Force Base which is located in California on 27 July in 1969.

Author Resource:- If you are interested in flying jet fighter simulations than you will need an equally capable flight controller. At the moment the best way to get started is to buy a HOTAS system wathog hotas This is built and modelled off a real a10 aircraft and really adds to the overall realism to any game. Another equally good HOTAS flight controller that you should consider is, saitek x65f
