McDonnell Douglas F-15 Streak Eagle over St. Louis, October 1974
F-15 Streak Eagle (AF Ser. No.72-0119) broke eight time-to-climb world records between Jan. 16 and Feb. 1, 1975.
In setting the last of the eight records, it reached an altitude of 98,425 feet just 3 minutes, 27.8 seconds from brake release at takeoff and "coasted" to nearly 103,000 feet before descending.
It was flown in its natural metal finish and stripped of most avionics to reduce weight for the record-setting flights.
The Streak Eagle was retired in 1980 and donated to the National Museum of the USAF.
