What can our F-111s carry that an F-15E can't?

At a guess........... Harpoons.

Silly me, I should have known that. How hard would it be to clear the
F-15E for Harpoons?

Cheers

I don't know, to be honest. From what little I know of it, I don't think it
would be too hard. The wing hard-points can handle the weight, and I'm told
that because the weapon and the aircraft are both digital its only a matter
of writing the proper software. IIRC, F15s were cleared to launch the
Pegasus(?) anti-satellite missile, and it was a big mother too.
