The Boeing F-15EX Eagle II is being considered an electronic warfare platform as Boeings Super Hornet, which the EA-18G Growler is based on and is currently not being built, will no longer be built after 2027. Already, the F-15EX can carry anti-radiation missiles and has the capability to carry outsize weapons and pods, coupled with an open systems architecture. Without an airborne electronic attack platform, allied forces may be unprotected from many radars and threats ranging from improvised explosive devices to drones.
