Preorder Expected Arrival - SEP 2025

In 2017, the Luftwaffe's Taktisches Luftwaffengeschwader 51 (TaktLwg 51) operated the Tornado ECR (Electronic Combat/Reconnaissance) aircraft, a variant of the Panavia Tornado designed for electronic warfare and reconnaissance missions. TaktLwg 51, based in Germany, played a crucial role in NATO operations and European defense. The Tornado ECR was equipped with advanced sensors and electronic countermeasures, allowing it to detect, jam, and disrupt enemy radar and communication systems. Its ability to gather intelligence while conducting suppression of enemy air defenses made it a vital asset. The squadron demonstrated the Tornado's capabilities in various exercises, enhancing NATO's operational readiness.

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.
