The F-15 Eagle was a fighter aircraft designed by McDonnell Douglas. It first flew on July 27, 1972. Today, it still enjoys the best combat ratio of any aircraft ever, having never been shot down by an enemy aircraft, though in several accidents have been shot down or damaged by their own aircraft or in a crash. A dedicated strike variant, the F-15E Strike Eagle, has been built. By now, McDonnell Douglas has been absorbed by Boeing, and it has relieved McDonnell Douglas of its production duties.

Israel, the United States and Saudi Arabia are all operating both the F-15E and F-15. Japan only operates the F-15 and South Korea solely the F-15E. Israel, Saudi Arabia and Japan have specialized variants of the F-15 and F-15E.
