About

expeditionary wings in the U.S. Air Force and is the host unit at Seymour
Johnson AFB, North Carolina, a major Air Combat Command base. The wing is

About
the F-15E Strike Eagle:
The Boeing (formerly McDonnell Douglas) F-15 Eagle is an American-built,
all-weather, extremely maneuverable, tactical fighter designed to gain and
maintain air superiority in aerial combat. It entered service in July of 1972. A
derivative of the aircraft is the F-15E Strike Eagle, a highly successful
all-weather strike fighter which entered service in 1988. The F-15C/D model is
being replaced by the F/A-22 Raptor. The fate of the F-15E is yet unknown but as
the airframes are relatively recent, will likely remain in the U.S. inventory
for some years to come.
