We are celebrating the Panavia Tornado’s first flight that took place on the 14th of August 1974.
The Tornado was specified in response to the need for a versatile, multi-role tactical fighter that could perform equally well in high speed low-level penetration, reconnaissance, air superiority, and air defense missions. The collaboration between Germany, Italy and the UK, formalized in the late 1960s, was very ambitious and aimed to pool expertise and resources to create an aircraft that would serve multiple NATO air forces and fulfill varied roles. The multinational team worked tirelessly, overcoming linguistic, technical, and bureaucratic barriers, driven by a shared vision of innovation and excellence. AviaStorm have prepared a development progress report on the status of their Tornado for DCS. Please read the details below.
