-The F-15J Eagle is the flagship fighter jet of the Air Self Defense Force.
-Japan Air Self Defense Force is the United States Air Force, the third eagle equipped country in the world after Israel.
-The Air Self-Defense Force, which has been using F-104J as a demand fighter, investigated FX as a successor to F-104J.
-Decided to adopt F-15 on December 9, 1959 from among many candidate aircraft, the first aircraft arrived at Gifu base on March 27, 1982.
-The Air Self-Defense Force's F-15J at the beginning of the introduction was basically equivalent to the US Air Force's F-15C block 26, and some of the Air Self-Defense Forces had their own modifications.
-This is a vertical tail with the addition of the SDF's own automatic warning and control system (badge system) and a high-speed data device (J / ASW-10 data link system) that receives key control from the E-2C early warning aircraft. The main improvement point is to change the antenna at the tip of the to mass balance.
-The Air Self-Defense Force first deployed the F-15J at Nittahara base and started deploying it to the battle aeronauts in earnest after devoting it to the training of pilots.
-Currently F-15J has 201 squadrons (Chitose base), 202 squadrons (Nitarahara base) 203 squadrons (Chitose base), 204 squadrons (Hyakuri base), 303 squadrons (Komatsu base) 304 squadrons (Tikijo) Base) has been deployed in seven squadrons of 305 squadrons (Hyakuri base).
-The F-15J, like the United States Air Force, has a multi-stage upgrade program (MSIP) and is equipped with additional equipment every year.
-For this reason, the appearance has been changed as new antennas are added.
-In addition, the aircraft that can carry domestic air-to-air missile AAM-3 is also being renovated.
-F-15J will be active in the defense of Japan's sky with FS-X, which will be developed as the main fighter of the Air Self Defense Force.
