Kneeboards for F-15E Strike Eagle for air-to-air missile, guided/unguided bomb employment.
These are not official procedures, just what I've put together as a quick reminder on how to employ various weapons on the F-15E (after not flying it for a while, or in this case, it's new). Kneeboards included:

The F-15E Strike Eagle kneeboards need to be placed in the F-15E Kneeboard folder, for example:

============================================
Update: 12/22/2023: Minor update to two kneeboards.
After testing using AGM-154 JSOWs, I updated the following two kneeboards, adding a note at the end of each page that deploying a JSOW is identical to deploying a JDAM.

============================================
Update: 11/21/2023: I updated one kneeboard and added two JDAM related kneeboards.
Minor update to the following kneeboard to incorporate the new coordinates pop-up dialog in the F10 menu:

Added a new 2-page kneeboard for using GBU-38 JDAMS in weapon memory mode using the LANTIRN TPOD to obtain target coordinates:

Added a new 2-page kneeboard for using GBU-38 JDAMS in weapon memory mode using the UFC to enter target coordinates:

============================================
Update: 7/16/2023: I updated one kneeboard and added a new one.
Minor update to the following kneeboard page (forgot to add a step to turn on the LANTIRN TPOD from the WSO position):
F-15ESE - CBU-97 CDIP TPOD-LN-2.png
Added the following kneeboard, to create mark points using the UFC, to be used as steer points or as a cue source for the LANTIRN TPOD:

============================================
Update: 7/15/2023: I updated the following F-15E kneeboards:
F-15ESE - AIR-TO-AIR BVR ACM AIM-120-1.png
F-15ESE - AIR-TO-AIR BVR ACM AIM-120-2.png
After reading more of the user manual, and doing some more testing, I made the following changes:
- In the section "BVR with AIM-120, Track While Scan (TWS: Track multiple targets)":
* One of the TWS mapping steps (AAS fwd long) was for the back seat stick, so I removed it
* Expanded the TWS sub mode mapping steps from DTWS/2TWSH and HD TWS/3HDT, as a reminder of more TWS options
============================================
Update: 7/2/2023: I updated the following F-15E kneeboards:
F-15ESE - GBU-12 TPOD-LN-1.png
F-15ESE - GBU-12 TPOD-LN-2.png
Changes are as follows:
- When setting GBU-12 delivery parameters, using STEP instead of 1/STA made it easier, allowing the use of one program (PROG x) in PACS/armament screen; updated the steps accordingly (page 1)
- Added an optional step to undesignate the target in the LANTIRN via Boat Switch AFT (page 2)
Added a new 2-page kneeboard for using CBU-97s, as I was initially challenged to figure out all of the fusing and delivery parameters:
