The F-15 Eagle was developed as an air superiority fighter and later models added the role of attack plane. Unlike the F-16 Fighting Falcon, the F-15 is not in widespread use by the Tau'ri outside of the United States Air Force.
Alternate timelines[]
- In an alternate timeline, a flight of four F-15s are assigned to transport Colonel Cameron Mitchell, Colonel Samantha Carter, and Dr. Daniel Jackson to Antarctica. When the base is destroyed, they are rerouted to Russia and engage the invading Goa'uld. (SG1: "Continuum")
