Our F-15C Eagle, S/N: 81-0055, initially served with the 27th Tactical Fighter Squadron and played a key role in Operation Desert Storm. Later, it was transferred to the Oregon Air National Guard before being decommissioned and sent to AMARC in 2006.
In late 2024, we acquired the rudders and several interchangeable fuselage panels from this iconic aircraft. The rudders were written off and swapped sometime prior to its heading to AMARC due to water damage - and were won by highest bidder at a DRMO auction by a private collector in a group lot of Eagle parts.
The fuselage panels also had the serial number tag that matched the rudders - see below:
These parts have been meticulously upcycled into our unique TransportTags, allowing aviation enthusiasts to own a tangible piece of history - and as always, with each of our tags, they carry the distinct markings and weathering of the aircraft’s life and battle scars.
** Some - but not all - of the tags in this run have emerged from the laser engraver with a bright gold color/sheen, thanks to the anti-corrosion gold alodine coating beneath the gray paint. These coatings prevent corrosion and add a unique touch to the tags. Please note that they are quite limited - the tags with gold etching are the gold alodine gray tags, the structured tags, the exterior/interior dual colors, and a few of the top-secret tags. We also have some very unique rudder carbon tags in this line.

TransportTags is pleased to be able to offer this amazing piece of aviation history as part of its growing line of premium custom crafted tags.
Vehicle History
Vehicle History
The F-15C Eagle is a twin-engine, all-weather tactical fighter aircraft developed by McDonnell Douglas (now part of Boeing) for the United States Air Force (USAF). First introduced in the 1970s, the F-15 was designed to gain and maintain air superiority in aerial combat. Its development was driven by the need for a fighter that could outperform potential adversaries during the Cold War, particularly in light of the advancements made by Soviet aircraft. The F-15A variant was the initial production model, followed by the F-15C, which featured improved avionics, enhanced radar capabilities, and increased fuel capacity, making it a more effective platform for air dominance.
The F-15C Eagle made its first flight on July 27, 1979, and entered service with the USAF in 1984. It quickly established itself as a formidable air superiority fighter, boasting a speed of over Mach 2.5 and a combat radius of approximately 2,400 miles without external fuel tanks. The aircraft is equipped with an array of advanced avionics, including the AN/APG-63 radar system, which provides high-resolution target detection and tracking capabilities. Moreover, the F-15C's design allows it to carry a wide variety of air-to-air missiles, including the AIM-7 Sparrow and AIM-120 AMRAAM, enhancing its versatility in engagements.
Throughout its operational history, the F-15C has demonstrated remarkable success in air combat. It has achieved an impressive air-to-air kill ratio, with numerous victories in conflicts such as the Gulf War and various operations in the Middle East. The aircraft played a crucial role during Operation Desert Storm in 1991, where it was instrumental in establishing air superiority over Iraq. Its ability to engage multiple targets simultaneously and its high speed made it a key asset for the USAF, contributing to the overall effectiveness of coalition forces in the region.
Despite being introduced several decades ago, the F-15C Eagle remains in service today, thanks to ongoing upgrades and modernization efforts. These enhancements have included improved avionics, weapons systems, and integration of advanced technologies to maintain its competitive edge against newer threats. As a testament to its design and performance, the F-15C Eaglecontinues to be a vital component of the United States' air power, symbolizing the evolution of air combat technology and the enduring legacy of a fighter that has dominated the skies for over 40 years.
