I hope we are savvy enough to nuke the remains of the aircraft so the Chicoms have to work harder to steal the technology.

The F-15E is old enough that Slick Willie probably already sold them the technology, or they’ve stolen it. The E variant first flew in 1986.

I doubt there is much left.

I wonder if the malfunction had anything to do with being hit by a missile or cannon fire.

Are you serious? The Chicoms already have all of the technology, the five-axis milling machines to build it and the training to operate it. Twenty-plus years of unimpeded if not assisted spying, ten of which we know they had/have direct links to the White House for access to anything. Our "friends" in Germany and Israel have gladly sold China our technology and our universities are training up the next generation of Chicoms to understand and implement the advanced machine learning principles to guide robotics and cyber warfare.

Sadly, we are getting to the point where we need to spy on the Chinese for the next generation of gear. Not that it would really benefit the West much - we closed down our mines and factories years ago, and lost the cyber war when we let Google track and control everything else.

I noticed on Fox news footage showing both aim 9 and 120 missiles on the ground.
