Aircraft History

The McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle is an American twin-engine, all-weather fighter aircraft designed by McDonnell Douglas (now part of Boeing). Following reviews of proposals, the United States Air Force (USAF) selected McDonnell Douglas's design in 1969 to meet the service's need for a dedicated air superiority fighter. The Eagle took its maiden flight in July 1972, and entered service in 1976. It is among the most successful modern fighters, with 104 victories and no losses in aerial combat, with the majority of the kills by the Israeli Air Force.

The Eagle has been exported to many countries, including Israel, Japan, and Saudi Arabia. Although the F-15 was originally envisioned as a pure air superiority fighter, its design included a secondary ground-attack capability that was largely unused. It proved flexible enough that an improved all-weather strike derivative, the F-15E Strike Eagle, was later developed, entered service in 1989 and has been exported to several nations. Several additional Eagle and Strike Eagle subvariants have been produced for foreign customers, with production of enhanced variants ongoing.

The F-15 was the principal air superiority fighter of the USAF and numerous U.S. allies during the late Cold War, replacing the F-4 Phantom II. The Eagle was first used in combat by the Israeli Air Force in 1979 and saw extensive action in the 1982 Lebanon War. In USAF service, the aircraft saw combat action in the 1991 Gulf War and the conflict over Yugoslavia. The USAF began replacing its air superiority F-15 fighters with the F-22 Raptor in the 2000s. However, reduced procurement pushed the retirement of the remaining F-15C/D, mostly in the Air National Guard, to 2026 and forced the service to supplement the F-22 with an advanced Eagle variant, the F-15EX, to maintain enough air superiority fighters. The F-15 remains in service with numerous countries.

-Cipher-

You and I are opposite sides of the same coin. When we face each other, we can finally see our true selves. There may be a resemblance, but we never face the same direction.

Larry Foulke to Cipher

Cipher was a mercenary pilot employed by the Ustio Air Force's 6th Air Division. He was the flight leader of Galm Team and primarily led the squadron during the Belkan War of 1995. Cipher is the player character in Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War. His signature aircraft is the F-15C Eagle.

Cipher is well known for having an extraordinarily high number of kills in Area B7R, which earned him the nickname "Demon Lord of the Round Table".

Postwar & Legacy

Having completed his contract, Cipher left the service of the Ustio Air Force and was never seen again. In 2005, OBC journalist Brett Thompson decided to make a documentary that covered the events of Belkan War and chose to center it around Cipher after finding several references to his nick name “Demon Lord.” To better understand the Demon Lord, Thompson interviewed several veteran pilots who had fought with or against Cipher during the conflict and recorded various accounts of his actions throughout the Belkan War. Among the pilots Thompson had interviewed was Demon Lord’s former wingman, Larry Foulk who at the end of his interview asked Thompson to give Cipher a message if he managed to find him. Although Cipher’s story was eventually told in the documentary Warriors and the Belkan War, Thompson was unable to find him for an interview or to pass along Foulke’s message.
