F-15 propulsion systemA brief description of the NASA F-15 research aircraft propulsion system is given. The F-15 is powered by two PW1128 afterburning turbofan engines which are growth versions of the F100-PW-100 engine. The PW1128 is controlled by a full-authority digital electronic engine control (DEEC). The F-15 inlet is a two-dimensional, three-ramp, external compression design with partially cut back side plates. Each inlet is independently controlled by an electronic air inlet controller (EAIC).
