European Roles for the F-15E
Abstract
Several preliminary documents have already addressed F-15E employment; however, this is the first to be based on direct experience with the weapons system. The study begins with a review of basic Air Force and North Atlantic Treaty Organization doctrine. It then analyzes F-15E capabilities and limitations, aircrew training, and European operational considerations. Finally, these criteria are assessed in terms of the doctrine to recommend one primary and two secondary role statements for the F-15E in Europe. Along the way, the study identifies employment considerations for those who will eventually develop European strategy and tactics for the F-15E.
