Forget the Old F-15: The Air Force Could Have a Stealthy F-15SE "Silent Eagle"

Worth the cost?
by Sebastien Roblin

Key Point: A stealthy F-15 sounds like a good idea in theory, but it is unclear how much it would cost. Given that the military already has the super stealthy F-35, it would not make sense to purchase another expensive fighter.
 

A recent article concerning Boeing’s pitch to the U.S. Air Force of a cheap, modestly upgraded F-15X fighter elicited lamentations from some commenters that the Air Force was not enticed by a more ambitious proposal for the F-15SE Silent Eagle—an F-15 with a reduced radar cross section.

There is/has been a lot of talk about different aircraft purchases and just thought this may help make it clear on why so many different aircraft and what their roles may be.
This video is a little cheesy in spots but a well done presentation.
