While the F-15IA has a 13,380-kilogramme payload capacity to carry massive weapons, it is officially a conventional fighter. Israel's strict policy of nuclear ambiguity ensures no jet is ever publicly confirmed as a nuclear delivery system.

The 4.5-generation F-15IA lacks the absolute stealth of fifth-generation fighters. However, it compensates with a Mach 2.5 top speed and a 13,380-kilogramme payload, working alongside stealth jets to deliver massive firepower.

The F-15IA features a combat radius of roughly 1,270 kilometres without refuelling. By utilising conformal and external drop tanks, its maximum one-way ferry range extends to nearly 4,000 kilometres, enabling strategic deep strike missions.

The F-15IA operates seamlessly at night and in severe weather. Using APG-82 terrain-mapping radar, infrared targeting pods, and automated low-altitude flight systems, the jet executes precision strikes in zero visibility without hesitation.

The F-15IA consumes roughly 1,000 gallons of fuel per hour at cruising speeds. However, when flying at Mach 2.5 with a maximum payload and full afterburners engaged, this rate spikes to nearly 18,000 gallons per hour.

While the base flyaway cost of a modern F-15 is around $90 million, Israel's $8.6 billion contract pushes the F-15IA's actual price to roughly $344 million per jet. This includes custom technology, spare parts, and long-term maintenance.
