The Hoax RevealedThe truth behind this story:

The pictures that you have been viewing are not real photographs but are taken from an animation created as part of the investigation into the crash.

All models of the F-15 were grounded until an USAF investigation into the crash concluded that there was a manufacturing defect in the airplane, which was built in the 1970s by McDonnell Douglas.
