F-15EX Begins Expanding Beyond Air Defense With Bomb Training
Key Takeaways
- An operational F-15EX unit dropped inert training bombs during May missions in Idaho.
- The activity marks an early step toward adding air-to-ground skills to a fleet still centered on air defense.
- The F-15EX’s design already includes strike-family heritage from the F-15E and F-15QA.
- The shift is gradual, but it shows the Eagle II’s role is broadening beyond pure air-to-air combat.
