Joe, what is the takeoff weight of your f15? It looks like the 140 pushes it plenty.

Lormuhl

The 140 is more then enough for the F-15. Take off weight with the center line drop/smoke tank is around 30 pounds. The is 32 oz of smoke oil in the center line tank and I carry about 120 oz of fuel.

Most of the flight I am at half throttle or a click or two over except on the vertical climbs.
