The first episode of a multi-part series about the American 4th-generation heavy fighter, the McDonnell Douglas F-15 "Eagle."
This episode serves as a preface to a larger series about this aircraft and will introduce the viewer to the development of the "Air Superiority" theory in the US Air Force. You will learn about the origins of this theory, its evolution, and its direct influence on the F-X program, which developed the world's first airborne 4th-generation fighter, which would become a benchmark and a yardstick for all subsequent aircraft of this class in the rest of the world.
