 | | The 'Strike Eagle' demonstrator was joined by an F-15C and an F-15D which conducted trials with a variety of fuel and ordnance loads, usually with CFTs fitted. |
 | | McDonell's 'Strike Eagle' name was not adopted, though some unofficial epithets such as 'Beagle' (Bomber Eagle) and 'Mud Hen' have benn used on occasion. |
 | | Although the F-15E is an exceedingly potent warplane for the strike missions, critics point out that its low wing-laoding produces a rough ride, especially for the backseater, and that the F-15E's payload is less than that of the 30-year-old F-111. |
