The Boeing F-15EX Eagle II is an American multirole fighter derived from the McDonnell Douglas F-15E Strike Eagle. It resulted from United States Department of Defense studies in 2018 to recapitalize the Air Force tactical fleet, which was aging after post-Cold War budget cuts and the truncated F-22 production. It is a variant of the F-15 Advanced Eagle, which began with the Saudi F-15SA that first flew in 2013 and the Qatari F-15QA in 2020, and it adds an improved internal structure, flight control system and avionics, and the AN/ALQ-250 electronic warfare system. It is manufactured by Boeing St. Louis division, formerly McDonnell Douglas. The F-15EX made its maiden flight on 2 February 2021, and the first was delivered to Eglin Air Force Base in March 2021.
