The F-15 is more expensive to maintain. The F-15C is an air superiority fighter, it has air to ground capability but it's focused on the air fight. The F-15E, the Strike Eagle, has better air to ground capabilities but requires a WSO in the back. The F-16 is single seat (except for B/D variants I think?) and single engine which means half the pilots required and it's cheaper to maintain since it only has one engine. Plus the F-15 was supposed to be replaced by the F-22 which was cancelled with only 178 built so the F-15 is still tasked with protecting US airspace.

The S-300s were at some point meant to be replaced by S-350s, a more modern variant made to boost defenses without replacing everything with S-400s. If there's S-300 tubes close to expiring, it's preferable to fire those instead of sending them to get recycled.

They fire from Russian airspace to avoid surface to air missiles.

Problem is, all the generals and politicians have their kids living in our Western cities and studying in our private universities. Who's going to follow the order?
