For those interested I will continue to post on my modern F-15 mods here.  It is fairly well-known that I have made an F-15EX mod that is currently available for download here: https://www.digitalcomb

Here are the planned features for the F-15EX, F-15C MSIP, F-15J, and F-15CX mods.  I will edit this over time to reflect what has been implemented.   F-15EX Eagle II Feature List: - Leg

While I will not include the AIM-174B with the F-15EX mod, I have set it up such that if you have currenthill's AIM-174B mod installed, you can load it on the F-15EX straight away.  I make no promises about how well it works, in my testing I have gotten a 50% hit rate thus far.  If you do not have the AIM-174B mod installed, then you will be able to load AIM-120Bs on Stations 2, 4, 8, and 10.  I will not add it to the outer wing pylons because the F-15C PFM really does not like the asymmetric load that results if you only launch one of these monsters.  Who needs more than four of these anyway? XD

Oh I can imagine,

I’ve loaded those beasts on an F-16 and when I let one go, the plane banks hard on the opposite wing.

Looking forward to flying your plane.

Just an FYI from a texture guy Spino, your pilot in the back looks a bit rough because you should rename 000001A7595CF338.dds to 000001A7598713B8_roughmet.dds so that it is applied as a roughmet instead of a specular. It should make the visor shiny after that change.

Managed to get 30 minutes in with version 2 before having to do some work :lol:

Nice cockpit, most of my previous mappings still work so not had to do that and nice to have A/A and A/G with massive loadouts. The AIM-200A wortks fine, can't remember if that was included or a mod I installed, I know I got the AIM-174B by Currenthill.

Excellent update and one of my favourite 3rd party mods :thumbsup:

Thanks, I'll look into that.  At some point in the future I will probably release a small update to correct that as well as some other issues that have cropped up.

Working from home today,

In a bit, looking forward to jumping into this Eagle and soaring through skies of the Siria map.

Great update!

Some issues I noticed were the AIM-260s going into a small spiral right after launch. This didn't happen with the AIM-174 which went into a proper loft trajectory.

Noob question: in the future, will there be a version with CFT? It can get on and off like the F-16I does

I hope not.  There are no plans yet to deliver any with CFT's, they aren't funded.

Great article...not sure what it has to do with CFT's, but good article.

Thanks for the kind words as I'm the author.  We discussed the CFTs not being on the -EX due to budget.

From the article: "The F-15EXs of today versus the F-15Cs of the 1980s are “A brand new airplane” and “essentially a digital platform” that “looks like an Eagle, smells like an Eagle,” as Colonel Kosderka explained. However, the previously profiled upshifts in capability are held back by the lack of funding for conformal fuel tanks like the Strike Eagle family has. Until then, the F-15EXs on hand are enhanced replacements for the F-15Cs with better avionics like a new helmet-mounted sight."

In case we missed this 🙂

Ah okay...wasn't sure.  I saw the blurb in the article, just thought I was supposed to be seeing an article specific to the CFT's.  So you were just linking an article that stated what I already had.  Got it.

It's probably just me but, how do I do anything in the F-15EX? Seems like my mouse doesn't do anything, hell I can't even see the mouse arrow. HUD doesn't turn on, can't click on any of the MFD functions. I know it's based on FC3, but I literally can't do anything besides just fly. Is there a read-me I missed somewhere?

Functions exactly as the FC3 F-15c does. No clickable pit , HOTAS functions only
