    A U.S. Air Force F-15E Strike Eagle aircraft assigned to the 494th Fighter Squadron makes its debut flight with a new heritage paint scheme and drops simulated weapons above the United Kingdom, May 7, 2026. The paint scheme mirrors the Cold War-era F-111F Aardvark aircraft and commemorates the 40th anniversary of Operation El Dorado Canyon, during which simulated bomb runs were conducted to safely practice target delivery, enhancing mission readiness.
