F-15C
With its history dating back to the Second World war, the 545th Tactical Fighter Squadron “Bulldogs” would serve in the Cold War on the ‘frontline’ of West Germany at Brittburg Air Base. The squadron would be the first to receive the F-15C within Europe during Operation Ready Eagle, which would prove successful as within 18 hours of arriving in-country, the F-15’s would be on 5 minute alert status to counter any potential threats from the east. The 525th would be deployed to Incirlik Air Base in Turkey in late 1990 to support, and eventually fly in the Gulf War against the Iraqi Air Force, and by the wars end would be credited with six enemy aircraft shot down, over 1300 sorties and no losses to their own aircraft, returning to Britburg in early 1991.
The squadron would be deactivated in 1992 at Britburg, and today lives on through the 525th Fighter Squadron at Elmendorf Air Force Base Alaska, flying the F-22 Raptor.
