And the future is bright! This was Tornado F.2 ZD905 'AV' operated by RAF 229 OCU on the display ramp at the 1986 Mildenhall Air Fete. She and her sisters were to replace the Lightnings and Phantoms then in service.
The initial version of the Tornado ADV with 18 being built. Seriously underpowered plus it had problems with the Foxhunter radar, which meant that the aircraft were delivered with concrete and lead ballast installed in the nose. 229 OCU/65 sqn
