F-15I Ra’am

is the Israeli version of F-15E Strike Eagle. Unlike the standard F-15E variants, this aircraft is tailored especially for IAF service. The camouflage is one of a kind, made for the Israelis similar to their F-16I Sufa. As with the Sufa, with the Ra’am there are visual differences compared to the original platform. Nozzles for example. It is considered as one of the most sophisticated variants of the Strike Eagle upon which is based, improved with Israeli electronic suite. The tones of the camo are typical for IDF planes and unique in the military aviation.

Ra’am

strike and interdiction planes were used very successfully in several key missions engineered by the IAF. The plane proved to be very effective and completed all the tasks easily. Due to its long opearational range, various weapons payload and dual crew, the plane became indispensable for Israel. To this day, Ra’am jets are used constantly and since 2016 they are being upgraded, due to the fact that currently there is no substitute for the Strike Eagle/Ra’am for the IDF. The squadron that operates the F-15i is considered the Top in the Israeli Air Force arsenal. Many claim, that F-15i is the best airplane that was ever used in IDF, despite F-35i being in service.
