This McDonnell Douglas F-15C Eagle did a special flyover by the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center as it flew in to join our collection! The aircraft will go on display soon at the Museum. | National Air and Space Museum, Smithsonian Institution

A McDonnell Douglas F-15C just flew in to join our collection! There’s nothing like an artifact that can deliver itself. The F-15 Eagle is one of the most historically significant fighter aircraft since World War II, in part because of its combat record in the many U.S. conflicts of the past 50 years. The aircraft will go on display at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center soon. | National Air and Space Museum, Smithsonian Institution

Thank you for helping us celebrate 15 years of our Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center! It seems like only yesterday we opened our doors--with help from the International Space Station and a replica of the Wright Flyer, of course! | National Air and Space Museum, Smithsonian Institution
