Thanks for the link. I had forgotten there were three prototypes. Perhaps the aircraft in back in the hangar is number three as the nacelles are different from the two pictured, as well, the nose glazing seems different.
 
A side view of the left wing pylon of an F-15 "Air-to-Ground Strike" Eagle aircraft. Attached to the pylon is a GBU-15
multiple bomb carrier loaded with CBU-58 bombs. Eglin Air Force Base, Florida, 23 December 1982. Despite being
designed purely as an air superiority fighter, with "Not a Pound for Air-to-Ground," the Eagle turned out to be pretty
good at ground attack as well, leading to the development of the F-15E Strike Eagle.

Why did some British cold war era fighters have pylons for missiles on top of the wings, or in the electric lightings case fuel tanks?
