Five Eagles In Three Minutes

Five Eagles In Three Minutes A single Raptor pilot from the Combined Test Force at Edwards AFB, California, launched four guided AIM-120 missiles against four separate targets on 24 July. The Raptor's integrated weapons system successfully identified, tracked, and linked each target's data to the AIM-120s and each missile passed within lethal range of its target. During a press conference at Andrews AFB, Maryland, in May, Secretary of the Air Force Dr. James G. Roche told reporters that in one test "We had five F-15 Eagles against one Raptor and the engagement was over in three minutes. None of the F-15s even saw the Raptor. The Raptor simply went down the line and, in simulation, took out all five of the F-15s."
