F-15EX 20-0003, designated as EX3, is the third F-15EX Eagle II delivered to the U.S. Air Force and the first built in the final operational configuration. It features enhancements such as a redesigned forward fuselage tailored for USAF needs, a cockpit pressure monitor and warning system, and an ultra-high frequency antenna for satellite communications. EX3 arrived at Eglin Air Force Base on December 20, 2023, joining the 96th Test Wing for combined developmental and operational testing. This delivery marked a significant milestone in the F-15EX program, advancing the aircraft toward full operational capability. The USAF hopes to purchase 76 F-15EXs over 5 years and eventually a total of 144 aircraft.

Includes 16 AIM-120 AMRAAM Missiles and 2 AIM-9 Sidewinder Missiles.
