When I started building this I was trying to get as close to the F15 shape as possible. I then made some minor compromises to give it better performance. There are a couple of "cheaty" control surfaces hidden in the fuselage to compensate for the inadequate performance of KSP elevators/elevons for craft that get up to this scale or beyond.

I wanted to make a "C" but when I realized the missiles were to fat to be AMRAAMs or sidewinders I decided it was an "E" and is carrying mavericks.

Feel free to mod up, paint, weaponize, use in videos, whatever you like.

Nice! I like the F-15, and I also made stock missiles for my own replica.

OK, I figured out how to make AMRAAMs (thinner missiles) that still look good and fly straight... ie, not just an i-beam and some sepratrons. I will do a video on the technique later.
