I know similar scenarios were made into a movie.
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.

Question 1#
given the choice of any weaponry available for the F15,
(even some that may not be normally used)
what would your weapon load be? This is using all available hard points
and taking fuel out of the equation.


Mk/B61 Nuclear weapons

Question #2
Given the choice of weapons above, what would your tactics be to
maximize damage to the carrier fleet and prevent as many planes
as possible from reaching Pearl. (while saving your own butt)


Throw em a coupla buckets o instant sunshine

You know it. You could carry five at the *least*. Come to think of
it you could probably put a B83 (more bang) on the centerline, one on
each CFT and one under each wing. Five 1-2 MT bombs (ten I guess if
you're using two Eagles) ought to do the trick :-)
