Like its sister games, F-15 does not have a definitive storyline, however, each mission given is randomized and some variable difficulty settings (enemy pilot skill, landing capability, training mode) are given.
!!Tropes within this game series include:

* {{Crossover}}: In a sense with ''F-19 Stealth Fighter,'' as ''F-15'' allowed missions in two of the ''F-19'' theaters to be playable.
