Taiwan to Lease F-15s
How many? 20, 40, 60 or even more? And where from?
This comes back to the USAF proposal to retire all their F-15s and upgrade their F-16s for AD because they can’t afford the bill to rewing/upgrade. Taiwan pays for the second which funds the first.
Alert 5 » F-15s could at China’s doorstep as Taiwan might be leasing them

Forget all the A/B models - and I would have thought most of the C/Ds in storage. The interesting sentence in the report is....... “The proposal is to lease aircraft that still have half of their lifespan remaining”.....
