Can India Buy American F 15 Heavy-Duty Fighters To Outclass Chinese J-16s In Mountain Warfare ?
Boeing To Offer World’s Fastest, Heavy-Duty Fighters To India That Can Outclass Chinese J-16s In Mountain Warfare.
Boeing is planning to officially offer its top dogfighter and one of the world’s fastest jets — F-15EX to the Indian Air Force and drop F-18 Super Hornet from the lucrative Indian MRCA (Multi-Role Combat Aircraft) competition.

In April 2018, the Indian Air Force proposed the MMRCA 2.0 tender for the procurement of 114 additional fighter jets for its air fleet, following the acquisition of 36 Rafale jets.

Boeing is vying for the multi-billion dollar contract that includes the Swedish Saab Gripen, the Russian MiG-35 and Su-35, the French Dassault Rafale, the Eurofighter Typhoon, and the US Lockheed Martin F-21.

According to a senior company official, “offering the F-15EX would result in Boeing pulling the Super Hornet from the MRCA contest.” Last year, it was reported that the US government has given Boeing authorization to sell F-15 fighter jets to India.

Since the MRCA tender is yet to be released, Boeing is unclear whether the Eagle-II (F-15EX) or the Super Hornet would be a right match for the IAF.

“India needs to relook at their force structure in the light of Rafale and Tejas orders. If the gap is at the high-performance end, the F-15EX could be a fit. But these are early days,” says the Boeing official.

F-15EX For India
The F-15EX is the most recent model of the F-15 air superiority fighter, which initially took to the skies in 1972. Externally, the F-15EX is very identical to a conventional F-15, but it features a new fly-by-wire system, a more powerful processor, and an advanced electronic warfare suite.

The Eagle-II is the world’s fastest (Mach 2.5, or 3,100 kph) and most heavily equipped fighter (payload of 13.6 tonnes, or 30,000 pounds), with the greatest strike range of 1,200 nautical miles or 2,222 kilometers.
