HISTORY ASPECTS:
The McDonnell Douglas F-15E Strike Eagle is a dual-role fighter designed for long-range, high-speed interdiction without relying on escort or electronic warfare aircraft. Developed from the air-superiority F-15 Eagle, the F-15E was introduced in the late 1980s with an expanded role that included precision ground-attack capabilities, advanced avionics, and conformal fuel tanks for extended range. Equipped with the APG-70 radar and the ability to carry a diverse arsenal including JDAMs, laser-guided bombs, and AIM-120 AMRAAMs, the F-15E proved itself in multiple theaters with unmatched versatility and survivability.
The 333rd Fighter Squadron "Lancers," part of the 4th Fighter Wing at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, has a long lineage of service dating back to World War II. By 2012, the Lancers played a critical role in maintaining combat readiness for the Air Combat Command, operating F-15Es in training and tactical deployment scenarios. While not directly deployed in combat in that year, the squadron’s Strike Eagles and personnel remained integral to operations supporting the U.S. Central Command missions in Iraq and Afghanistan through regular deployments, preparing for precision strike missions, close air support, and suppression of enemy air defenses (SEAD).
The F-15E Strike Eagle has seen extensive combat use since Operation Desert Storm, and in the years leading up to and following 2012, the aircraft participated in Operations Iraqi Freedom, Enduring Freedom, and Inherent Resolve. Its flexibility to strike deep targets with pinpoint accuracy while defending itself from aerial threats has made it a cornerstone of American airpower. The Lancers' aircraft continued to embody this legacy, with regular participation in joint exercises, coalition operations, and real-world deployments.
This 1:100 scale model is a must-have for collectors and aviation fans alike. Featuring accurate squadron insignia, realistic weapons loadout, and precision detailing, this replica captures the essence of one of the most battle-proven jets in modern U.S. Air Force history.
