Boeing F-15SE Silent Eagle

The Boeing F-15SE Silent Eagle was a modified F-15 Eagle with stealth characteristics, a concept Boeing developed as an export-oriented, stealthier variant of the F-15E Strike Eagle. It was designed with conformal weapons bays and other features to reduce its radar cross section, including vertical stabilizers canted outward at 15 degrees and extensive radar-absorbent material, and it was to carry weapons internally to avoid external hardpoints. Avionics were to include the APG-82 AESA radar and the Digital Electronic Warfare System. Boeing unveiled it on 17 March 2009, aiming at foreign buyers barred from the F-22 or seeking something cheaper than the F-35, and pitched it to South Korea, which chose the F-35A in 2013. Boeing then turned to the F-15SA, which became the basis of the Advanced Eagle family leading to the F-15QA and F-15EX, and the F-15SE was not selected by any air force.
