[description]Through the Ages F-15 Eagle
This vintage style military aviation travel poster “Through the Ages F-15 Eagle” artwork is dedicated to all the hard working men and women who fly, maintain and support the F-15 Eagle.
The McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) F-15 Eagle is an American twin-engine, all weather tactical fighter designed by McDonnell Douglas to gain and maintain air superiority in aerial combat. It is among the most successful modern fighters, with over 100 aerial combat victories. Following reviews of proposals, the United States Air Force selected McDonnell Douglas’ design in 1967 to meet the service’s need for a dedicated air superiority fighter. The Eagle first flew in July 1972, and entered service in 1976. The Eagle has since been exported to Israel, Japan, and Saudi Arabia, among other nations.
