About This File
The F-15EX is the latest development of the F-15E Strike Eagle. It features modernized avionics, radar, weapons systems, and new engines packed inside a 20,000 flight hour airframe. Fly-by-wire flight controls enable payloads on stations 1 and 9 (previously unused), allowing the F-15EX to carry up to 12 air to air missiles, though AMBER racks could theoretically increase this to 20.
Unfortunately I can only include one livery with this mod due to file size limitations. The others are available on the User Files as well as in a separate livery pack here:

Version 2.0 comes with the custom cockpit from @musolo, as well as the AIM-260A JATM and support for currenthill's AIM-174B missile mod. It is otherwise very similar to the previous release Version 1.8.7.
Installation: Just extract the .7z file and drop it into Saved Games/DCS/mods/aircraft (or Saved Games/DCS.openbeta/mods/aircraft depending on which version you have). This mod has been tested with DCS 2.9 as of 11/10/22.
