Designed by McDonnell Douglas, the F-15A was engineered to ensure air dominance and was introduced into service in the mid-1970s. With its exceptional speed, range, and advanced avionics, the F-15A quickly established itself as one of the most capable fighter aircraft of its time. Its design incorporated powerful Pratt & Whitney F100 engines, enabling it to reach speeds of over Mach 2.5 and climb to high altitudes in record time, which became essential during its operational tenure.The "Satellite Killer" designation came from a highly publicized incident in which F-15A 76-084 participated in an anti-satellite weapons test. This program was part of the U.S. military's broader strategy to demonstrate its capabilities in countering potential threats from adversaries that might exploit space for military advantage. While the test itself was a demonstration of technology rather than a combat conflict, it underscored the importance of the F-15A in projecting U.S. air power and deterring hostile actions during the Cold War. The aircraft’s advanced avionics and weapons systems made it a versatile platform for a variety of missions, from air superiority to ground attack.Throughout its service, F-15A 76-084 played a pivotal role in numerous exercises and operations, contributing to the United States' strategic posture in both peace and conflict. While not directly engaged in combat during the period associated with the "Satellite Killer" incident, the F-15A fleet would later see extensive use in Operation Desert Storm and other engagements throughout the 1990s and early 2000s. The aircraft proved its worth against various threats, achieving a remarkable combat record and reinforcing the U.S. Air Force’s dominance in aerial warfare.This 1:72 scale model captures the sleek design and impressive details of this iconic fighter. A perfect addition for collectors and aviation enthusiasts, this replica showcases the F-15A's storied legacy and advanced capabilities. Display it with pride to commemorate the significance of the "Satellite Killer" and the vital role it played in maintaining air superiority during a pivotal era in military history.PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS:We gladly accept paypal.Tracking info is free upon request.SHIPPING INFO:We do combine shipping cost for two or more items purchased.
