The Tornado is truly one of the most diverse planes in the world. Created by a joint venture with great Britian, Germany, and Italy this multi-purpose aircraft is used for what ever the job calls for. It's two 16,000-lb thrust Turbo Union engines provide a maximum speed of Mach 2.2 It is equipped with two 27-mm IWKA- Mauser cannons, plus an assortment of bombs and missies with a maximum load of more than 18,000 lbs. Designed in collaboration with Britain, West Germany and Italy, the Tornado was first flown on August 14th, 1974 and is thought by many to be the most important military aircraft in Western European history. Nicknamed "The Flying Fin" because of its large tail fin, the Tornado has a variable wing sweep design and is capable of taking off and landing on short airstrips. It is equipped with terrain-following radar, which allows for hands-off, low-level flight in any weather. There are three primary versions: an electronic combat/reconnaissance version, an interceptor and a highly versatile strike fighter-bomber capable of carrying almost all of NATO's air-launched weapons. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
