Over the years Bundeswehr (German Federal Air Force) Panavia Tornado 44+43 c/n 365/GS100/4143 served with JaboG 32, JaboG 34, JaboG 31, AG 51. JaboG 32 was the third unit to receive the Tornado IDS with JaboG 34 located at Memmingen becoming operational with their Tornado in June 1988. By the time JaboG 34 was disbanded in 2003 they had accumulated 450,000 flight hours. In 2007 Tornado 44+43 was retired and preserved at Birkenfeld. The aircraft is finished in a Norm83C camo scheme. 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.
