U.S. Air National Guard F-15C Golden Eagles — upgraded with advanced, long-range radars that also will serve as electronic warfare jamming and attack weapons — are becoming part of the Air Force's composite air dominance force that also includes stealthy F-22s stationed at Langley AFB, Va.

Each fighter type will shoulder 50% of the air dominance mission now that the F-22 force has been capped at 187 aircraft. The upgraded F-15Cs will carry the larger APG-63(V)3 active, electronically scanned array (AESA) radar. The radar's long range and ability to detect small targets will allow F-22s to operate in electronic silence with their low observability (LO) uncompromised by electronic emissions.
