Broadsword's personal One seater F-15X Silent Eagle
The F-15X Stealth Eagle was built as a cross between the 3D TVC equipped F-15 ACTIVE and stealth version of the F-15E Strike Eagle,the F-15SE Silent Eagle. Its main role is as a stealth fighter,similar to that of the F-35 Lightning II,having less advanced stealth technology compared to the F-22A Raptor. It was developed as a cheaper solution to the F-22A Raptor.
Overview[]
This plane incorporates Silent Eagle's outward-canted vertical stabilizer,Conformal Weapon Bays(CWBs) and stealth coatings,as well as ACTIVE's 3D-TVC system and canards,which has been modified to be retractable to maintain stealth. The M61A1 Vulcan has been replaced by the lighter M61A2 Vulcan similar to that of the F/A-18 series and F-22A Raptor. Due to the installation of the canards,the Vulcan was repositioned from its original position in the right wing root to just above the intake,similar to the F-22A Raptor. Its Thrust-Vectored nozzles allowed it to perform the "Kulbit" and "Pugachev's Cobra" maneuver,like the Flanker families. During stealthy missions,the wing pylons are removed and a removable internal weapons bay is placed on the belly. The internal weapons bay could be fitted with either 6 AIM-120 AMRAAMS,6 AGM-88 HARMS,4 AGM-154 JSOWs,4 AGM-158 JASSM or 6 GBU-39s. The Conformal Weapon Bays could be fitted with 2 AIM-120 AMRAAMS,2 AIM-9 Sidewinders or 2 AGM-88 HARMS. After the stealth mission is completed,the aircraft can be reconfigured to carry more weapons,by removing the internal weapons bay,allowing 6 hardpoints to be utilised. The CWB is then replaced with CFT,providing 3 hardpoints each. The wing hardpoints are then installed back,giving the ability to mount 2 AIM-9 or AIM-120 on each hardpoint and a drop tank. This is also increased by the ability to carry additional AIM-120s on the lower fuselage corners and an additional pair of AIM-9 on a removable wingtip launcher. The F-15X is equipped with the latest AESA radar,the AN/APG-82(V2) derived from F-15E's AESA radar.
