RAF Tornado (PC)

Please note, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002/2004 or Combat Flight Simulator is required to play this Add-on

The real Tornado was developed by perfectionists and this unique simulation is no different. Virtual aviation enthusiasts can join the modern-day boys in blue, open the taps and move the mud at Mach 2.2! This is a high quality rendition of the European designed ground attack aircraft. RAF Tornado features the IDS (InterDict Strike) version. The Tornado is a European multipurpose military aircraft well known around the world thanks to its performance and flexibility. Designed and built as a collaborative project in the UK, Germany and Italy, the Tornado programme was initiated in 1968 and known as Multi-Role Combat Aircraft (MRCA).

Since the early eighties the Tornado has been used in many different, real-war missions and this makes Tornado interesting not only for the military enthusiast but also for all simmers. The possibility to explore Flight Simulator scenery at a speed of Mach 2.2 can be interesting as well as the ability to actually refuel in-flight from a formatting tanker is a first in FS2002. The RAF's potent ground attacker keeps the peace in Flight Simulator 2002 and goes to War in Combat Flight Simulator 2003.Britain's Royal Air Force is justly proud of its reputation for setting a standard that others need to match. Likewise, Just Flight – the world's largest specialist flight sim publisher & is well known for its officially licensed  RAF flight simulator expansions. Hugely successful products like RAF Collection, Battle of Britain Memorial  Flight and The Dam Busters have all gained official licenses and been acclaimed for their authenticity and attention to detail. Now the RAF's front-line stalwart, the Panavia Tornado gets the nod from today's Brylcreem boys in this fantastic package developed by the detail fanatics at Lago.

The FS2002 version of the Tornado is big on action with 16 liveries, a massive amount of animation and in a first for Flight Simulator, the chance for simmers to test their skills by refueling in-flight from the KC-10 or VC-10 tankers that are also included. Three detailed airfields and a host of other features complete the Tornado's role as peacekeeper in Flight Simulator.Meanwhile, Combat Flight Simulator 3 fans can also load up the Tornado with a complete weapons and damage model and start picking off their enemies in deadly ground attack warfare.Notes: Not all liveries or functions are available in CFS3. Combat is only available in CFS3.Flight Simulator 2004/Century of Flight compatibility: while no guarantee  can be made by Just Flight until final release of Microsoft's new release, a  free update for FS2004 compatibility is planned later in the summer.
