Why does Israel get an F-15 from late 1998?

[ardi223]

Because of the Zionist lobby.

Fear the ZOG almighty, for it can reach you everywhere!

It sure can

MCLOS missiles - slow
SACLOS missiles - medium
SALH missiles - fast AF


And @GARGEAN, the ADATS gets to fly fast because it doubles as an anti-aircraft missile, which are always fast in game.

"In any case, following the arrival of the F-15I, the Israelis began an improvement effort for their older F-15s under the "Baz Meshupar (Improved Eagle)" program. This featured elements of the F-15I, such as the modernized cockpit, GPS-INS navigation system, and DASH helmet. The first rebuilt Baz Meshopar was rolled out in November 1998, with the program completed in 2005."
Why?

Maybe the issue is only with the name ...
It is a F-15I, not an upgraded one. Initially, we had it called "Akef", but someone pointed that no plane variant bore that name, only an individual F-15. I think the F-15I is also called baz, but we needed a different name to set them appart.
Some IAF buffs suggested "Baz Meshupar", being the name of F-15 upgrades ... which suited us ... yet I didn't check that the name fitted the timeframe indeed.
So basically, it is a F-15I bearing an OOTF name.

Interesting "mistake"

Was the Merkava model a mistake even ?

Was the Merkava model a mistake even ?

Obviously ... since we've changed the model.

Seems like an interesting precedent. Although i would also say the F-15I is OOTF

All the Israeli F-15 A/B/C/D Eagle are called "Baz" (Falcon) which has been upgraded to "Baz Meshupar" (Improved Falcon). The Israeli F15I which is a modifided F15E Strike Eagle is called "Ra'am" (Thunder) indeed (as it is in the game).
