March 27, 2020 - F-15E Strike Eagles and
F-15C Eagles training sortie taxis and takeoffs at RAF Lakenheath,
England. The 48th Fighter Wing has a critical mission of delivering
combat air power when called upon that must continue. As the U.S.
Air Force in Europe's only F-15 fighter wing, the 48th Fighter Wing
brings unique air combat capabilities to the fight, such as the most
advanced Joint Direct Attack Munitions used by the F-15E.
RAF Lakenheath provides all-weather, day or
night air superiority and air-to-ground precision combat capability
and multi-staged improvement program avionics. When teamed together,
the F-15E and F-15C provide an air combat capability never before
seen in the history of airpower.
