Selected to accelerate the Advanced F-15 with enhanced technology
GE’s advanced F110 engine has been significantly improved to adapt to the unique demands of the F-15EX. New increased airflow, jet engine efficiency, a three-stage chord blisk fan and an advanced radial augmentor reduce complexity, improve maintainability and increase the life span of parts. Built with capability in reserve, the F-110 engine can adapt to changing global threats and mission needs for decades to come.
