Alot. Also they are the only F-16s that have taken out a nuclear reactor. Maybe two (Syria). But we still have the only 16 that downed a 15. Hey even if it was at ramming speed the eagle died while the falcon soared. Very Happy

AFN Sucks, WTF are you smoking??

[/quote]As of 2008, the F-15 in all air forces has an air-to-air combined kill record of 104 kills to 0 losses in air combat[quote]

I know that Wikipedia isn't always valid, but, this number is pretty much standard on every site!

I believe he is referring to a mid-air collision that happened sometime last year (At least I think it was last year). The F15 went down, but the Viper was able to land.

To EGLZRULE,

Of course I was talking about mid-air collision since the whole ramming speed bit. Why on earth would we down a 15? All the countries that have 15s are allies.

20 years ago, actually. Bill Elliot (NASCAR driver) was onboard the Viper.

I apologize. I didn't know about the mid-air that happened within the past year or so? I just considered the source "afnsucks", and just figured that he was babbling more uneducated moronic gibberish?! Please forgive my mistake.

EGLZRULE and afnsucks,
It is actually 2 -0 in the Fox 4(mid air) catagory. Bill Elliots wild ride and the Eagle that ran into a Viper at Red Flag Alaska last year. So lesson learned --- Quit running jets together, they are damn expensive.

I'm a Viper Fan and I figure EGLZRULE likes the 15. (I'm smart huh?) So just a little jab... You didn't have your name entered into a Cosmo Contest lately, have you??? That's really aimed at the pilots cause the Eagle is an Okay jet.

yeah but the F-15 does have one successful Fox 4 (first time I have heard anyone but my friend say that) on an A-4. Lost a wing and landed at 250 knots.

Wasn't that an Israeli who was flying on a training mission? I recognize the part about the losing the wing but I don't know if it's the same story/event.
