Actually how it works in modern jet fighters is that when the electronics on a jet fighter confirm that a missile will hit the plane, then the pilots are auto ejected from the plane to safety. Its not about killing the pilots, its just about destroying the plane. An F15 is a pretty old aircraft, so it will be an easy target for a s300, although it may have been a s200.
