Advanced electronic warfare system makes Air Force debut in Lakenheath’s F-15E Strike Eagles
A pair of United States fighter aircraft with electronic warfare upgrades were deployed to a NATO air base in Europe, enhancing the alliance's defense.
The upgraded F-15E jets arrived at the Royal Air Force base at Lakenheath on January 16, 2025, joining two combat-ready Strike Eagle units.
The Eagle Passive/Active Warning and Survivability System enhances the F-15E's ability to detect and counter threats, according to Lieutenant Colonel Timothy Causey.
