اعلنت شركة بوينغ امام مؤتمر رابطة سلاح الجو السنوي انها انتهت من وضع أحدث وأكبر التطورات علي الطائرات المقاتلة من طرازF-15 النسر الصامت بتطوير يسمح للتصميم البالغ من العمر 43 عاما الى حمل 16 صاروخ جو-جو للقتال بدلا من ثمانية صواريخ في النسخ القياسية عن طريق hefting المتعددة القادرة على تحمل زوج من صواريخ AIM-120 AMRAAMs مع التعديلات التي أدخلت على القائمة بتصميم خزان وقود امتثالي النسر لجعل هذا ممكنا

The annual Air Force Association conference will kick off outside of Washington next week, where Boeing is putting its latest and greatest combat aircraft developments on show for industry and Washington power brokers. This includes new F-15 configurations that allow the 43-year-old design to lug 16 air-to-air missiles into combat instead of the standard eight it carries today.
According to Boeing artwork floating around the net, this includes the activation of the number one and number nine weapon stations on the outer wings, or possibly by hefting a multiple ejector rack capable of carrying a pair of AIM-120 AMRAAMs on the Strike Eagle’s conformal fuel tanks. It’s speculated that some modifications have been made to the Eagle’s existing conformal fuel tank design to make this possible. Additionally, a new pylon for the Eagle’s standard wing hardpoints capable of carrying four missiles instead of two looks to be a key part of the concept.
Like the F-15 Silent Eagle concept and its various sub-options that have yet to find any buyers, this new Eagle offering may not be exclusive to new-build aircraft alone and could be able to be applied to various Eagle variants to varying degrees, depending on the operator’s needs. Conformal fuel tanks can even be fitted to existing F-15C/Ds, so this type of modification may not be limited to the F-15 Strike Eagle series alone.
