eso está traído por los pelos del cogote, Orel. Es un non-sequitur como una casa.
Sin necesidad, se mantiene lo existente, que funciona. Mira cómo no paran de desarrollar nuevas municiones AS, porque ahí SÍ que hay necesidad
Lo que si puede haber pasado es que no han visto la necesidad de un alcance extendido con ram jet tipo meteor,
De todas formas volvemos a lo de siempre, a ver si los quinta de los demas son quintas de verdad
Boeing doubles F-15C missile load in '2040C' Eagle upgrade
15 September, 2015
... “F-15s and F-22s in the fight together in the future out there in the 2030s... The air force has funded some of these and we’re in discussions about the others, but many are funded programmes of record.”
“Doubling the number of missiles on the jet is not something that’s a current programme of record, but it is something we know is of interest to the air force.”
Gibbons says instead of carrying weapons internally to reduce the Eagle’s radar cross section, the “evolving threat” – Russia and China’s fielding of advanced fighter jets – favours more weapons, according to Boeing.
The Pentagon capped F-22 production at 195, forcing the air force to keep the F-15C in service far longer than planned, and current operating concepts team the two jets for a high-low mix.
Boeing sees a market for more than 200 active-duty and air national guard F-15C upgrades, and the new payloads could be delivered as part of a future service-life-extension programme (SLEP).
Gibbons says some USAF F-15Cs have more than 20,000h of flight time remaining on the airframe, whereas other are in the low teens and would require new wings and vertical tales.
Speaking at a media roundtable 15 September, Air Combat Command commander Gen Hawk Carlisle said the F-15C will require a life-extension programme in the near future and the added capabilities being offered by Boeing will be considered as part of that.
The upgrade would be a “significant bill,” but he says the planning for that needs to start now in the absence of more F-22s. Boeing is also targeting international F-15C operators including Japan, Israel and Saudi Arabia.

una fuerza occidental de primera línea de entrenamiento y equipación es obscenamente imbatible. Desde entonces, los pocos locos que han puesto en vuelo sus aviones contra nosotros se han llevado la del pulpo a cambio de nada.
