The Americans showed what the F-15EX, which are in service with the US Air Force, will look like. Previously, we could see this car in an unpainted form.

The F-15EX has received a lot of attention lately. It is assumed that it will be among the most powerful fighters on Earth. Recently made the first flight of the F-15EX, built for the United States Air Force, now the car was shown in the camouflage of the Air Force.

The color scheme is similar to the one we can see on the combat-ready American F-15S, and differs from the scheme used on the F-15E fighter-bombers.

One of the main features of the new aircraft is the ability to carry a record number of weapons for a fighter. According to previously reported data, it will be able to take on board up to 22 guided air — to-air missiles, surpassing even the fifth-generation fighters.

According to some reports, the US Air Force may eventually acquire about 200 F-15EX fighters.
