📋 About This Mod
F-15 Drop Tank Pack
=======================================================================================
Features:
F-15C Eagle:
- (1) Central Tank (No wing tanks due to presence of PLSL pods.)
F-15J Peace Eagle:
- (1) Central Tank
- (2) Wing Tanks
- (3) Central and Wing Tanks
F-15E Strike Eagle:
- (2) Wing Tanks (No central tank due to presence of TLS pod.)
In case you still don't know, you can hold the weapon switch button to drop the tank.
=======================================================================================
File Explanation:
- Asset: Includes the required assets for the tanks to work.
- Main: Includes main aircraft pawn that enables the drop tank function for each Eagles.
=======================================================================================
Compatiblity Note:
- Recommended to use the "DropTank-BaseTextures" from Dantofu's original vismod to give default skins the tank textures if you still use them.
- Compatible with VisMods as this mod doesn't touch the SWP meshes.
- SEMI compatible with old F-15C/J skin mods. Since this mod uses modified texture, only skins that mostly comes after Dantofu's F-15 tank vismod would look proper.
- SEMI compatible skin specific swaps. Dependant on load priority (More "~~~" in filename.)
- NOT compatible with mods that changes aircraft pawn such as model swap and weapon swaps.
=======================================================================================
For Modders Only:
- Asset file included plwp options for 1, 2 or 3 tanks for F-15C, J and E should you choose to swap their SPWs.
- 15C and 15J's belly pylon and fuel tank mesh are Dantofu's modified mesh from his original VisMod, therefore they use the modified plane's textures and not the DPTK based UVs. Texture template is provided in Dan's mod, link above.
- 15E belly pylon is unchanged and still the same pylon used to hold TLS pod. Asset files named "7e" by default use default tank meshes with its own texture and not the same as 15C/15J
- You are permitted to mod using these assets, as long as you:
1. Don't include the Asset file in your mod, and link this mod as a requirement in your mod description/Read Me.
2. Credit me and Dantofu.

Assistance by Blaze's AC
Adds mounted drop tanks to the F-15C, F-15J, and F-15E, allowing them to be dropped like the F/A-18E -TGM-. A niche cosmetic/functional mod for Project Wingman players who want more realistic F-15 loadouts.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Adds a requested feature for F-15 fans (124 endorsements).
- Simple concept that enhances immersion for F-15 flyers.
- Recent update (Feb 2026) suggests active maintenance.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects F-15 variants—if you don't fly those, this mod is useless.
- No detailed instructions or compatibility notes provided by the author.
- Small mod with limited scope; may not be worth it if you prefer other aircraft.
For Project Wingman players who main the F-15C, F-15J, or F-15E and want the ability to drop external tanks for a more dynamic loadout. Skip if you rarely fly F-15s or prefer gameplay over cosmetic tweaks.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to install the mod into the correct game directory (usually the mods folder) to avoid conflicts.
- Test the drop tank mechanic in a free flight mission to see how it affects handling and weight.
- If you use other F-15 mods, check for file conflicts—this mod may overwrite existing F-15 configurations.
