Sorry, not sure this should be on here but.....
I live in N. Norfolk, and F-15's are always over my head, using a small museum as target practice! Both FR and also ADS-B don't show these. Anyone know where USAF planes can be seen or is it just they don't locate these.
As I type there is currently 2 playing overhead!

Not much help but I work on the theory is you can hear a jet and its not showing on ADS-B its a F15, Just had a few jets heading north over the north east, not showing, but there is an AWACS operating over Northumberland so looks like an exercise is ongoing.

It's an F15 - I think it's on ADS-B but not on military view with no callsign. Yesterday there was 2 overhead and nothing showing. Just wondered why they don't show with B52/KC tankers etc do.cheers

Looking at ADS-B Exchange today and was pleasantly surprised to see most of the aircraft illustrations have been replaced by photos of the actual aircraft selected. All was well until I spotted this French KC135 and its linked photograph!
Yeah there’s loads of them that are messed up.
