The Panavia Tornado was designed as a multi-role combat aircraft to
meet the needs of Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom. Since the
prototype flew in 1974, nearly 1000 Tornados have been produced in
a number of variants serving as a fighter-bomber, a fighter and in
the reconnaissance and electronic suppression roles. Deployed
operationally in numerous theatres throughout the world, the
Tornado has proved to be exceptionally capable and flexible. From
its early Cold War roles it adapted to the rigours of expeditionary
warfare from The Gulf to Kosovo to Afghanistan. The early "dumb"
bombs were replaced by laser-guided weapons and cruise missiles and
in the air-to-air arena fitted with the AMRAAM and ASRAAM
missiles.In this book David Gledhill explores the range of
capabilities and, having flown the Tornado F2 and F3 Air Defence
Variant, offers an insight into life in the cockpit of the Tornado.
Lavishly illustrated, Darren Willmin's superb photographs capture
the essence of the machine both from the ground and in the air.This
unique collection including some of David Gledhill's own air-to-air
pictures of the Tornado F2 and F3 will appeal to everyone with an
interest in this iconic aircraft.
