The F-15EX J-HUNTER represents the next chapter in the long and proven history of the Eagle family. Built on the legacy of the McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle, this newest variant blends combat credibility with modern technology designed for today’s battlespace. While the original F-15 earned its reputation through air superiority dominance, the F-15EX expands that mission with enhanced multirole capability, digital architecture, and unmatched payload capacity.
At its core, the F-15EX is a heavily upgraded evolution of the Boeing F-15EX Eagle II. The “J-HUNTER” designation symbolizes precision and persistence, reflecting an aircraft built to track, engage, and neutralize threats across air, land, and sea domains. Unlike fifth-generation stealth fighters that prioritize low observability, the F-15EX emphasizes payload, speed, and sensor integration. It carries more weapons than any other fighter in its class, giving commanders flexibility in high-intensity conflict scenarios.
One of the defining features of the J-HUNTER is its advanced avionics suite. Equipped with modern fly-by-wire controls and the powerful APG-82 Active Electronically Scanned Array radar, the aircraft delivers superior target detection and tracking performance. The cockpit is built around a large area display, providing pilots with an integrated and intuitive operational picture. This design reduces workload and allows faster decision-making in contested environments.
