The F-15 was built by McDonnell Douglas corporation three years and two and a half-million man-hours went into the design of the aircraft. Finally on the 26th of June 1972 the first F-15 rolled out of the St.Louis factory and the following day the Eagle took its first flight. F-15 radar would locate and destroy enemy aircraft before they ever knew what had hit them.
