Re: 20 Years of F-15s in the UK
Final one of the weekend from me, and it's another 493rd FS aircraft with some history. 84-0014 doesn't seem to get out much, as September 2009 is the only time I've caught it. This was the No 2 aircraft to 86-0156 on the Operation Allied Force sortie in March 1999 in which they downed two Serbian Mig-29's. Both aircraft had missiles in the air simultaneously, and initally each pilot and aircraft was credited with one victory. As 84-0014 was also credited with a Iraqi Su-22 from 1991 (when with the 53rd TFS), it became the only USAF F-15 to be marked with victories from both conflicts, and carried the small Serbian and Iraqi flags that the 493rd then marked it's jets with. On closer examination, it was discovered that AIM-120's from '0156 downed both Serbian Mig-29's, and the credit was removed, leaving just the Iraqi victory, which is now marked with the USAF standard star as below.
