I saw this on Facebook. Dean has reworked his F-15 series into the F-15EX. Don't know how accurate it is, considering the actual airplane hasn't been out that long. However, it will be good enough for "pretend", and I applaud him for building the F-15EX.

Thanks, John.

I don't have much data for the F-15EX, so a lot of it is based on the weights, thrust / drag curves and aerodynamic knowledge of the E model, adapted for the EX model. The glass cockpit likewise is based on the few images that do exist - the good news is that it's touch-screen interactive and has no negative effect on frame rates.

I'm fortunate to have a former F-15E Strike Eagle pilot assisting, who should be able to judge if I'm getting things "right" with the EX in general. So far, I can fly the famous EX display routine at weights similar to the commentary and it handles the manoeuvers really well, looks near enough identical in the replays.

All the other Eagles in the package are being updated as well for visuals mostly, and any bug fixes. The EX will be added free with the update when it's completed.
