The vast majority of time F-15 flies at subsonic speed. Converting it to propeller-driven design will save a lot of fuel and production and maintenance costs.

YUV format is lossy. The one that is twice as bandwidth-efficient as RGB records four times less color difference than full bandwidth YUV or RGB. Add to that that RGB often used with alpha channel and for half the bandwidth you will get twice the artifacts.

The subsampling scheme that is half of RGB is called 4:1:1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chroma_subsampling#4:1:1

It is not broadcast quality. 4:2:0 is also not good for today's standards.
