I don't know the exact number, but it is several thousand. If I had to guess, I'd say around 4 thousand, maybe 5.

Does it include the new F-15S? Hey BTW, is the F-15 more popular than the F-16?

Nope, the F-16 is far cheaper and possibly more versatile than the F-15, over 4,426 F-16's have been built, 2,401 of which are now being flown by pilots not serving the United States.

According to Wikipedia there are approximately 824 F-15's, including all varients, which have been built or ordered for pruduction.

I know that number is wrong because at least 1500 have been produced for the US over the years.

And your evidence? Find me some proof and I will admit my error.

I am not sure, but I think my numbers might now include the F-15E's, but even then we still have a large discrepency.

It isn't a competition guy. You don't have to believe me, and you don't have to admit any error. No biggie.

The number Wikipedia gives is way too low for total worldwide production, now if it's talking only recently, sure, but not total.

Just check out the production lists.
