Believe is correct size in drawing. Front wheel-tire looks to small to support F-15. Looks that way in RW photos.
You know
finsrin, in 'real-world' terms, I've always cringed at the seemingly lightness/delicacy/flimsiness of the F-15's nose landing gear, what with the size and weight of the Eagle's design.
Would be fascinated to learn how many, if any nose wheel collapses might have occurred over the operational life of the mighty Eagle?
P.S. does anyone know if the F-15A/B's landing gear was beefed up, as it weight grew in terms of these F-15E/F-15I/F-15S etc...?
