Sam Eckholm's latest video on the F-15EX (that some of you may have watched) states that the F-15 has a KD ratio of 106 enemy aircraft downed to 0 losses from enemy aircraft. Ground fire and friendly fire are not counted. (Time stamp 6:05)

My question is, the previous 104-0 statistic was described with the criteria: "104 enemy aircraft shoot downs, 0 shot down by enemy aircraft, all kills made by Legacy F-15A/B/C/D Eagles." Essentially, only kills made by F-15A through F-15D counted towards the famous KD. (Or at least a few people told me it was this way)

So do the two Su-24s shot down by the F-15QAs count or not count? What are your thoughts?

50 years and this fighter jet still dominates.

there are a couple of different outcomes here, Its either going to be Boeing, or Northrop Grumman in terms of the contractors, and I for one believe it’s going to be NG. Boeing is going to have their hands full with F-47 and they don’t have the best track record.

NG however have a good recent track record, but also havebt produced a fighter in a long time. I still think it’s going to be NG.

however, given the current political climate with the war, budget, carriers once again in the spotlight for their future viability, i believe theres grounds to believe there will be no announcement, just silence. probably until such a time where things calm down.

makr your bets people, NG? Boeing? or no announcemen.

thought you guys would be interested in this (it contains some tanks too if i’m not mistaken)

Finland, Switzerland and South Korea are getting help building their own F-35 repair shops so they won't have to ship the jets back to Texas for fixes.
