Northrop F-15 Reporter itu apa sih?

Northrop F-15 Reporter (kemudian RF-61) adalah pesawat bersayap tinggi untuk melakukan pengintaian fotografi ak bersenjata. Pesawat ini dibuat berdasarkan pesawat tempur malam Northrop P-61 Black Widow. Pesawat ini merupakan pesawat pengintai fotografi bertenaga piston terakhir yang dirancang dan diproduksi untuk Angkatan Udara Amerika Serikat.

Meskipun diproduksi dalam jumlah terbatas, dan dengan kehidupan pelayanan yang relatif pendek, foto udara F-15 di Semenanjung Korea membuktikan kejadian penting pada tahun 1950, ketika Korea Utara menyerbu daerah selatan.
