Talk:Mitsubishi F-15J

The modernization start of the F-15Js
As for the F-15J, it was written in the ja:F-15 that the modernization was planned (National Defense Program Guidelines for FY 2005) in 2004. I was not able to find the source by english. Do you know it? thanks.--Sabuell (talk) 18:17, 16 March 2011 (UTC)


 * I added in Japanese. But, I do not yet know the source by english which wrote the details of the Japanese MSIP. For example, the vector completely identified early production with a MSIP.--Sabuell (talk) 18:45, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Improvements to the English
I am working on some improvements to the writing of this article, as there are numerous grammar, syntax and discourse errors in the English. I appreciate whoever took the time to write in the content and mean no offense, but this is necessary for it to be a satisfactory article in my language. I have already completed the introductory text and the Development section. My edits are meant to change only the wording, not the meaning of the text. In some cases, it was difficult to make out what the meaning was precisely, so it's probably not perfect, but I think I've come close in most of it. This is my first time editing and I don't have any special attachment to the article, so if anyone else has any better ideas go ahead and revert/change as necessary. 67.183.71.73 (talk) 21:18, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Because i was not native, this article was helped by you.--Sabuell (talk) 16:30, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

I second this. Some of the text makes no sense and it's impossible to make improvements without being able to read the original Japanese sources. If anyone knows Japanese and English, please help! — Preceding unsigned comment added by R5452 (talk • contribs) 19:18, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

Not Capable of Ground Attack
"F-15J roles include combat and ground attacks."

The only F-15 model that is capable of carrying air-to-ground weapons and performing ground attacks is the F-15E, which Japan does not use. (144.91.49.79 (talk) 23:00, 22 July 2011 (UTC))

 * Well actually Israeli Air Force adapted their F-15 A/B models for improvised ground attack roles, so I guess C/D versions could be to, like japanese F-15 J/DJ are versions of former. But electronic and sensors are not fused to allow it to employ laser guided smart weapons, but they could be if modernised to such standards. F-15E is more adaptable for strike missions because of two crew members, but one pilot A/C versions could do it too, only less in heaviliy protected area denial airspaces where dual aircrew get the job done easier and less stressful with all electronic sensor which crew has to constantly look on. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.122.55.236 (talk) 13:16, 11 July 2015 (UTC)

Number built: 223
How is that so, if under variants there is writen:

"F-15J Single-seat fighter version for the JASDF. 139 built under license in Japan by Mitsubishi 1981–97; two built in St. Louis. F-15DJ Two-seat training version for the JASDF. 12 built in St. Louis, and 25 built under license in Japan by Mitsubishi during 1981–97."

If counted that summs total 178 airframes built. So which nummber is correct, 178 or 223? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.122.55.236 (talk) 13:25, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
