The Panavia Tornado is a family of twin-engine, variable-sweep wing multi-role combat aircraft, jointly developed and manufactured by Italy, the United Kingdom and Germany. The Tornado was developed and built by Panavia Aircraft GmbH. It first flew on 14 August 1974 and was introduced into service in 1979–1980. Due to its multirole design, it was able to replace several different fleets of aircraft in the adopting air forces. The Tornado was operated by the Royal Air Force (RAF), Italian Air Force, and RSAF during the Gulf War of 1991, in which the Tornado conducted many low-altitude penetrating strike missions. The Tornado made its combat debut as part of Operation Granby, the British contribution to the Gulf War in 1991. This saw 49 RAF Tornado GR1s deploy to Muharraq Airfield in Bahrain and to Tabuk Air Base and Dhahran Airfield in Saudi Arabia. 18 Tornado F3s were deployed to provide air cover, the threat of their long range missiles being a deterrent to Iraqi pilots, who would avoid combat when approached. Early on in the conflict, the GR1s targeted military airfields across Iraq, deploying a mixture of 450 kg (1,000 lb) unguided bombs in loft-bombing attacks and specialised JP233 runway denial weapons. - Thank you to Patreons that have helped and supported me in making these videos Retro Revelation Tarry Attorney personoid pluggedpotato Mandalorian Operator Sm1nny 72 Yee Yee MaxA Captain Max B_A_N_S_H_E_E Carl Neumann Evan Brown Ramaster00 sadaivmishra Stell Thomas Vallely DSOULCRUSHER AlexInTheOcean Diddermis ND178 Henrik Smiley Fren The Helpful Cat Tunfischblume Lu H smik Vinson Boi Kaiser Friedrich III Aoi ✨Aaron✨ Simone Gabrielle Parker Contreras CosmicClan2 Diak Petrov Finalzero Bob Nad ♥ kss0 Timothy Ruben Dan Tornero Leibherr Irrelevant Delta07phalanx Chill Peter Toby Talbot GAWu SuperchargedD Meme for the Win
