F-15E Strike Eagles Take off and Land at SJAFB

F-15E Strike Eagles from the 335th Fighter Squadron prepare to land at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, North Carolina, Aug. 9, 2021. The low-wing loading on an F-15E is a vital factor in maneuverability and, combined with the high thrust-to-weight ratio, enables the aircraft to turn tightly without losing airspeed.
