Coming soon to Steam! The F-15E Strike Eagle by RAZBAM.
Eagle Dynamics and RAZBAM are excited to bring the DCS: F-15E Strike Eagle to Steam later in 2023. At release on Steam, it will include a 20% discount. The developer, RAZBAM, has elected though not to offer the F-15E as a pre-order on Steam.

The F-15E Strike Eagle was developed in the mid 1980's as a multi-role fighter, designed to perform air-to-air and air-to-ground missions. An impressive array of avionics and electronics systems give the F-15E the capability to fight at low or high altitude, day or night, and in all weather. The Strike Eagle is the USAF's premier strike fighter still in use today.

The Strike Eagle delivered fighter aircrew several first-time capabilities. Its APG-70 radar, based on the very capable APG-63 from the F-15A-D, boasted a synthetic mapping capability that can create pictures of the target based solely on radar imaging. A self-contained, networked electronic warfare suite gives the aircraft excellent self-protection capabilities with enhanced battlespace information being delivered to the ergonomic two seat cockpit layout.

The Low-Altitude Navigation and Targeting Infrared for Night (LANTIRN) allows the aircraft to fly at low altitudes, at night and in all weather conditions to attack ground targets with a variety of precision-guided and unguided weapons. The LANTIRN system, consisting of two pods attached to the exterior of the aircraft, gives the F-15E unequaled weapons delivery accuracy. The Navigation Pod contains a Terrain-Following Radar that allows the pilot to operate at very low altitudes following cues displayed on the heads-up display. This system can also be coupled to the aircraft's autopilot to provide fully "hands off" capability.

Each of the low-drag Conformal Fuel Tanks adapted to smoothly fit the F-15E's fuselage can carry 750 gallons of fuel. The tanks hold weapons on short pylons rather than conventional weapon racks, reducing drag and further extending range. For air-to-ground missions, the F-15E can carry most of the weapons in the Air Force’s inventory. It may also be armed with AIM-9M Sidewinders or AIM-120C Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missiles (AMRAAM) for the air-to-air role. The "E" model also has an internally mounted 20mm gun that can carry up to 500 rounds.

The subject of this study level simulation is the F-15E Strike Eagle Suite 4E+ software installed in Strike Eagles around 2003.

Key Features include:
  • Advanced Flight Model that provides realistic performance and flight characteristics for the F-15E Strike Eagle with P&W F100-PW-229 engines.
  • Highly detailed external 3D model and textures for the most accurate F-15E currently available in any simulation software.
  • Highly detailed and accurate 6 DOF cockpit based on 3D scanned objects with high resolution textures, specular and bump mapping, and mouse-interactive controls.
  • Detailed and thorough simulation of the F-15E’s AN/APG-70 Radar.
  • Joint Tactical Information Distribution Systems (JTIDS) datalink.

Training material includes:
  • A set of interactive training missions covering all the most important instruments, weapons and aspects of using the aircraft.
  • Fully detailed manual for the aircraft and all systems
  • A free story-driven campaign built by Baltic Dragon
  • A set of single missions for Singleplayer, Multiplayer and Multicrew.

Interesting because...

The customer, COMMANDDORK, has elected though not to purchase the F-15E as an order on Steam.

Great! I'm not gonna buy it in pre-order. Instead, I wait for the full price and then buy it. I understand that Steam takes it share, but I love this platform. So the only thing I can do is paying the full price to support the module as much as I can.

What a really interesting news, but shouldn't RAZBAM first correct and finish the modules, already sold to the customers, prior to release more half baked toys?
The same to Eagle Dynamics; modules on perpetual pause state, while releasing more toys at an alpha condition, at exorbitant prices. It is better to close the wallet, for now on!


Kind regards.
