This is actually a good suggestion, but I'd like to point out some problems. Firstly, this Eagle is extremely rare, and I suggest that it should spawn more commonly, perhaps as common as how a Slime would spawn in Caves. This Eagle provides a good amount of uses, and deserves to be more common to provide the player with what it can do. I also suggest to maybe change the armour to "Eagle Armour" instead of War Armour. Since Horses have the same concept with their armour being named after them.
I'd now like to go over it's attacks. It has the ability to equip it's own type of armour, an enchantable Razor Talon. This can get quite powerful if it has Sharpness, Fire Aspect and Knockback. And with how they can lift the player a few blocks into the air and drop them make them a great get away from players mount. So this is a mount that makes PvP a lot more troubling since you have a companion to fight with and can make an easier escape. I personally think that the Razor Talon really shouldn't be used, since it's so powerful enough to be enchanted, but the armour I am okay with. Overall, a great addition, but needs tweaking in spawnrate and how it's armoury works.
jk but i like the idea not sure about the armor though.

i think we should all use common sense and logic when we answer and ask a question but always stay open minded
just cause science fails to explain something does not mean its real (afterlife,big foot, ghosts etc..) does not mean its fake try to stay opened mined instead of closed
Great! idea!. A well balanced mob with original ideas.
if only mojang would do a mob update adding mobs like eagles, bears, upgrading villages intelligence

Ah! I knew there was something I was forgetting. The original flight speed of an eagle is 2.5 blocks per second which I think
is around the same speed as Steve running. This has been added to the original post. Thank you!
also long as the eagle flies slower than the bat I'm good.
since bats are darn had to kill.

Interesting idea. I like the suggestion as a whole, but I dunno about picking a player up though.
How big exactly is the eagle? 1 block tall and 1.5 blocks wide? If its about the size of a bat, it would look really bizarre when it picks a player up.
The Philippine Eagle is pretty big, about 1 meter (which is one block), but the biggest eagle in the world is the Steller's sea eagle, which has a 2 meter long wingspan and is 1 meter long!
Birds like this are really powerful, and really big. So a 1 block tall by 0.5 block wide bird when walking and 2 blocks wide flying would look good. Just my take on the birds dimensions.
Support, as long as its a big bird!
Edit: maybe also hostility to other eagles? As you said, eagles are territorial. They would want to fight off other eagles in its territory. Random idea.
The eagle
Spawns in mountainous terrain above 80 y
Spawn rate is rare, about that of slime in caves
Drops 2 to 4 feathers and 2 to 5 experience orbs when killed
Lays 1 eagle egg every 20 minutes or once every minecraft day.
The favored prey of the eagle is sheep and rabbits. Killing either will restore an eagle's health.
Eagles are a neutral mob, meaning they will only attack a mob or player when provoked to do so excluding sheep and rabbits
which is marked by a nest made of brown, dried grass and twigs. The nest is mineable with a silk touch axe.
The nest is the only place an eagle will lay an egg.
Appearance
The wild eagle is 1 block tall and 2 blocks wide from wing to wing with it's wings open and is one block long from tail
to beak
while the wild eagle has it's wings closed it is 1 block wide
Their skin is biome related
Mountainous terrain:
They have a dark brown head and body with a dark silver beak and yellow eyes.
Jungle and swamp biomes:
They have a brown head and body with dark brown spots on it's underbelly, a silver beak and green eyes.
Savannah biome:
They have a light red body and head, dark silver beak and yellow eyes.
Ocean and frozen biomes:
They have a white head with black body, white tail, yellow beak and claws and brown eyes.
Stats
Eagles have between 4 to 7 health bars (8 to 14 hearts i think?)
The heath bar of an eagle is random.
Eagles deal 2.5 health bars of damage against unarmored entities
Eagles will fly up to 35 blocks away from the nest
Eagles have a flight speed of 3.5 blocks per second
Eagles cannot be tamed by being fed any item. Instead, they are only tameable by obtaining an eagle egg and throwing it
to the ground which has a 1/20 chance to produce an eagle chick.
Eagle chicks have 3 to 5 health bars
eagle chicks flee from hostile mobs
You can feed an eagle chick raw fish to restore it's health.
eagle chicks cannot be ordered to follow or be stationary. They will follow you on any solid block.
It takes 25 minutes for an eagle chick to mature into an adult eagle, tamed
Appearance of an eagle chick
eagle chicks are about a 1/2 block tall and 3/4 block wide with wings expanded, 1/2 block wide with wings closed
and are 1/2 block long from tail to beak
Eagle chicks are white with a black beak and eyes
Eagle chicks fether representation is poofy with a few random feathers sticking out
A tamed eagle has the same base stats and drops as a wild eagle
tamed eagles can be fed cooked fish to restore it's health.
Appearance of a tamed eagle
Tamed eagles have the same structure as their wild counter-part
Tamed eagles have a black body with an orange beak and claws, a white head and golden eyes
Tamed eagles feather representation is slick and round but also includes a couple of feathers sticking out
on the back of the neck.
They also have a small yellow tag on their left ankel that can be dyed any color
Tamed eagles can be ordered to be stationary or to follow by left clicking them while they are on the ground
While stationary tamed eagles will not move from that position willingly, stationary mode is illustrated by the
tamed eagle sitting.
While in follow mode the tamed eagle will escort the player on foot in cramped spaces or in flight in open areas.
The tamed eagle will engage in combat with mobs or other players that attack or are attacked by the player.
New pictures have been added. The first represents wild eagles, one standing and one flying.
The second represents a top view of the wild eagles.
The third represents the tamed eagle from the front
The fourth represents the tamed eagle from above.

I support this idea.
I hadn't thought about weight systems! Consider it added.
Health regenerates for wild eagles after killing a pig is good. added.
Flight distance increase to 20-25 blocks ok. added
swap iron and golden war armor added.
maturity time icreased to 25 minutes.
Also, yes. pigs killed by eagles would still drop pork
Thank you for the suggestions and support!

Love the idea even if they couldn't be fitted with armor.

Ok. Consider those changes made. I am also going to add a flight delay to help prevent overusage in pvp. But also offer
up that a good archer could easily pick you off and knock you down.
Spawn rate increased to that of a slime in caves
Razor talon removed due to OP issues
Eagles will now drop 2 to 5 experience orbs.
A delay was added to initial flight to prevent OP in pvp.

Also tweaked eagle armor to mirror that of horse armor and removed durability since eagle armor is uncraftable.

1. Eagles despawning would still occur as normal, the nest is just a sort of marker that gives a player a heads up
that an eagle may be near. However, it could be added that an eagle will be more likely to spawn around an abandoned nest.
Like if the original eagle had despawned or was killed.
2. The nest itself is a unique block that cannot be crafted. It is obtainable however, which would allow the player to
attempt to set a spawn zone more catered to them so long as it is above 80y.
I have added some more information regarding the nest, how an abandoned nest effects spawn rate, how a mined nest
effects spawn rate after being placed and a new behavior note for wild eagles when a nest is mined or destroyed causing
the eagle to frenzy. Also a new behavior note for frenzied wild eagles when a placed or abandoned nest is found that
eagle will discontinue to frenzy and return to it's normal behavior.

Eagles Gandalf, Eagles!
Your comment adds a bit more depth to this suggestion which I like, I would think it would be about a block tall and 2 blocks wide
from wing to wing, 1 block long from tail to beak. I will also be adding in the appearance of wild, tamed eagles and chicks.
