Polish Showcase Put on to Advertise Boeing's Fave Fighter
Boeing put on a demonstration of its freshened-up Eagle at the MSPO International Defence Industry Exhibition, aiming to sell its F-15EX to Polish authorities.
The successful F-15's latest successor has already proven a pretty solid seller in the fighter realm, offering buyers a top-of-the-line 4th gen fighter with all the modern fixin's, payloads, and avionics with a proven airframe that has stood the test of time. The -EX variant has already received the US Air Force's blessing, updating its fleet of older, aged F-15C and Ds as they creep ever closer to 45 years in service. If they could make the sale, the Eagle would provide a high-performance, premium fighter for Poland while ensuring their F-15 production line remains occupied into the future.
"Poland’s interest in the F-15EX confirms its dedication to the preparedness and effectiveness of its military forces,” said Tim Flood, senior director, Global Business Development for Europe and Americas. “The F-15EX offers superior interoperability, supportability and affordability along with a robust industry plan that would support Poland’s goal of developing independent defense capabilities.”
“The F-15EX is the world’s most advanced fighter with unmatched capability, lethality and survivability and is the right fit to strengthen Poland’s security needs,” said Rob Novotny, director, Business Development for Boeing’s F-15 program. “Through enhanced interoperability with U.S. and NATO forces, capacity for technology growth and a 20,000+ hour economic operational airframe life, Poland can expect the F-15EX to win in existing and future threat environments.”
