From: wb9omc@ea.ecn.purdue.edu (Duane P Mantick) Someone asked if this bird exists, the answer is yes. The Air Force is going to be equipping with the F15E and according to a recent press conference with our head honchos, will replace F15's that we sell/give to Saudi Arabia. In fact as *I* understood the press conference, many of the current F15 C and D models that we just flew over there will STAY there with the Saudis, and our pilots will have F15E's waiting for them when they get back. I don't have specific info right in front of me, but the E model is supposed to be an improved bird pretty much all the way around. Perhaps if one of the other contributors has the poop on it they could post it.... Duane
