The Tornado multi-role aircraft is operational in five different forms: Tornado GR 1 interdictor / strike aircraft for close air support; counter air attack and defence suppression; GR 1A tactical reconnaissance aircraft; Tornado GR 1B long-range maritime attack aircraft and Tornado F3 long-range air defence fighter. The GR 4 is a mid-life update of the GR 1.

The Tornado entered service in 1980 and ceased production in 1998. The Tornado was manufactured by Panavia, a consortium of BAE Systems, EADS (formerly Daimler-Chrysler Aerospace) and Alenia.

TORNADO GR 1 INTERDICTOR / STRIKE AIRCRAFT
“The Tornado multi-role aircraft is operational in five different forms.”Tornado GR 1 Interdictor / Strike (IDS) aircraft are in service with the German Air Force and Navy (290), Italian Air Force (90), UK Royal Air Force (186) and the Royal Saudi Air Force (96). The aircraft is equipped with an advanced sensor and defensive aids suite for low-level, deep-penetration missions in all weathers by day and by night.

The aircraft is fitted with two 25mm cannons on each side of the fuselage. The aircraft is equipped with a wide range of weapons. For close air support and interdiction, the aircraft is typically equipped with iron bombs, cluster bombs and laser-guided bombs. In the defence suppression role, it is equipped with anti-radar missiles.

German Air Force Tornado aircraft will be armed with the IRIS-T infrared-guided air-to-air missile, being developed by BGT.

The comprehensive suite of navigation equipment includes a Raytheon Systems terrain-following, ground-mapping radar, Decca Doppler Type 72 radar and BAE SYSTEMS FIN1010 three-axis digital inertial navigation system. Tornado has a multi-mode APFD AutoPilot and Flight Director from BAE Systems The aircraft’s TACAN (Tactical Air Navigation) system is the AD2770 from BAE Systems or the Alcatel SEL AG Sector-TACAN. The instrument landing system is the Cossor.CILS75/76.

In July 2002, the Italian Air Force signed a contract with Panavia to provide a mid-life upgrade for 18 Tornado IDS aircraft. The MLU includes: new Litef GPS satellite system, radio, Galileo Avionica radar altimeter and Thales TACAN, and the ability to deploy GPS and laser-guided munitions and the Storm Shadow stand-off cruise missile. The first was delivered in July 2004 and deliveries are to conclude in 2007.

In September 2006, BAE Systems was awarded a contract to upgrade 80 Tornado fighters of the Saudi Arabian Air Force.

    Nothing of the sort is true, you superstitious old goat. By the way, I am going to leave your death threat up for all to see. I want to them to see a baby-ish temper tantrum thrown by an old man who still believes in ghosts, gods, demons and hobgoblins.

    The guy I am replying to is an Über-Christian, folks! He’s angry because I dared to disagree with him on his jimbonumber9 account, but his idea of godliness is to issue death threats.

    Talmonisoni: “finds immer ig dass die welt mit veralteter technik rumfliegt, weil die kombination der neuen noch nicht funktioniert”

    Daran liegt das nicht. Da steckt enorme Entwicklungszeit drin. Bis es dann real wird ist die Technik natürlich weiter, aber man kann nicht dauernd nachbessern sonst wirds nie fertig. Der Eurofighter war zuerst ja auch als “Jäger ‘90″ im Gespräch. Nun haben wir ihn, über 15 Jahre später. Von der Seite muß man es betrachten. ;-)
