Product Description
Synopsis
Conceived 30 years ago, the Panavia Tornado was Europe's first true multi-role combat jet. When it entered front-line service in 1982, the RAF's first swing-wing, interdictor-strike aircraft introduced a new level of sophisticated weaponry. It has now proved itself an extraordinary achievement of aeronautical engineering. Development of the Tornado F3 long-range interceptor fighter followed. This is a review of the highlights of the MRCA story. It covers: its technical development; construction; entering service with the three European nations; the Tornado at war; planning for service into the next century; weapons; and performance details. It contains first-hand accounts of Tornado pilot's experiences and comment from the people involved in its development. Technical appendices detail every Tornado built.
