Description
The Tornado Units in Combat 1992-2019 by Michael Napier is a detailed account of the RAF's frontline backbone during the most recent conflicts over the Middle East and the Balkans. Featuring first-hand combat accounts, this book tells the story of the Tornado GR 1 and GR 4 aircraft as they supported ground operations with advanced multirole capabilities. From the Gulf War to the withdrawal of the Tornado GR 4 in 2019, this volume provides a comprehensive look at the missions undertaken by Tornado crews. The unique combination of reconnaissance pod, Brimstone missiles, and Paveway IV laser-guided bombs enabled the aircraft to support ground operations in various theatres. Written by former RAF pilot Michael Napier, this book offers a unique perspective on the Tornado's role in modern military operations.
