#2, F-15 Eagle: 104 Kills. Zero Losses.
The McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle holds the most flawless air-to-air combat record in military history: 104 confirmed kills with zero losses in aerial combat. Not one F-15 has ever been shot down by an enemy aircraft since the jet entered service in 1976. Israeli F-15s scored the first kills, and the aircraft went on to dominate in every conflict it entered, from Lebanon to Desert Storm to the skies over Syria.
What makes the Eagle's record even more remarkable is its longevity. Boeing is still building the F-15EX Strike Eagle variant today, nearly 50 years after the original entered service. The aircraft's twin-engine design, powerful AN/APG-63 radar, and unmatched thrust-to-weight ratio gave pilots absolute confidence in any engagement. Defense technology analysts consider the F-15 the most successful air superiority fighter ever produced, a title its combat record makes impossible to argue with.
