The Tornado F2 had a troubled introduction to service. Unloved by
its crews and procured as a political imperative, it was blighted
by failures and was developed to counter a threat that disappeared.
Modified rapidly before it could be sent to war, the Tornado F3
eventually matured into a capable weapons system, but despite
datalinks and new air-to-air weapons, its poor reputation sealed
its fate. The author, a former Tornado F3 navigator, tells the
story from an insider's perspective from the early days as one of
the first instructors on the Operational Conversion Unit, through
its development and operational testing, to its demise. David
Gledhill reflects on its capabilities and deficiencies and analyses
why the aircraft was mostly underestimated by opponents. Although
many books have already described the Tornado F3, the author's
involvement in its development will provide a unique insight into
this complex and misunderstood aircraft programme and dispel some
of the myths surrounding it.
