| وصف الكتاب | The Panavia Tornado was designed as a multi-role combat aircraft to meet the needs of Germany, Italy, and the United Kingdom. Since the prototype flew in 1974, nearly 1,000 Tornados have been produced in a number of variants, serving as a fighter-bomber, a fighter, and in the reconnaissance and electronic suppression roles. Deployed operationally in numerous theatres throughout the world, the Tornado has proved to be exceptionally capable and flexible. From its early Cold War roles it adapted to the rigours of expeditionary warfare in The Gulf, Kosovo, and Afghanistan. The early dumb bombs were replaced by laser-guided weapons and cruise missiles, and in the air-to-air arena the Tornado was fitted with the AMRAAM and ASRAAM missiles. In 2015, the Tornado GR4 is leading the British military response to ISIS in Iraq and Syria. In Tornado in Pictures, ex-RAF navigator David Gledhill explores the aircraft s range of capabilities and, having flown the Tornado F2 and F3 Air Defence Variants extensively, offers an insight into life in the cockpit. Darren Willmin s superb photographs capture the essence of the machine both from the ground and in the air. This unique collection, including some of David Gledhill s own air-to-air pictures of the Tornado F2 and F3, will appeal to everyone with an interest in this iconic aircraft |
