Very, very cool :P

Isn't the F-15C a bit outdated...?

[Revival_786]

How much better is the F-15E to the F-15C? What is the cost difference?

The C Eagle is the basic single seat air-air , air superiority fighter version of the F-15 with a very secondary strike or air-grund role.The Strike Eagle or E model is a two seat dual role deep strike interdiction model retaining the A/B,C/D Eagle's air-air capabilities.Just think about the Su-27 andSu-30 fighters for comparison(same basic model(Su-27) but different roles) with the Su-27 annologous with the A&C Eagle and Su-30 similar in role to the Strike Eagle.
The cost difference between the C&E models is only due to the increased level of sensor sophistication required for the E Eagle in order to give it high precision in it's all weather day,night attack role.
Also the C/D Eagles have a lower gross weight than the Strike Eagle.
The Strike Eagle also uses a greater amount of composites in it's construction than the air-air versions.
