But, if on Dec 1941 you had two strike eagles.
Only two. Your sortie arrived at the Japanese fleet
about the time 1/2 of the first wave was launched.
what would your weapon load be?
Not really sure what the weapons load out of an F-15E can be but I would load
enough air to surface missiles to put two killing shots into every carrier from
a distance that leaves me invulnerable to AAA return fire. If I can still carry
air to air missiles then as many of them as possible.
I doubt it could carry that many missiles. I'd think the best bet
would be seven 2000lb LGBs (don't know if it's a loadout they ever use
but it should be possible). Four on the CFTs, one on the centerline
and one under each wing and still have room for four AIM-9s.
