I wanted to share this GREAT photo of a German Tornado, taken here in the United States this year. I believe the Germans retired the last of their Tornados not too long ago, and have gone to the Typhoon. Great shot. Enjoy. Russell

Germany still operates the Tornado and plans to do so until 2020. The Marinenflieger handed theirs to the Luftwaffe in 2005. If the Tornados were retired what would Revell do for special schemes?

I didn't know that Mike, thanks for the update. I would like to build a Tornado, always like the look of that machine. Possibly put it in German Luftwaffe markings as well. Russell
