That's because this particular F-15 is part of the 65th Aggressor Squadron based at Nellis AFB. It's painted like a Russian jet because it plays the role of one in training exercises.
Flanker AMU at Nellis has two 15s painted this scheme now. 78-509 (shown) and 78-528 just got painted. They're a pain in the ass to keep clean, I'll tell you that much.

Nice, but nowhere as evil looking as the russian birds.
Considering the F-15 has been around since '76, it holds pretty well on the "evil" looking list

Couldn't even tell #3 and #4 were flying but sure could feel the heat
