Panavia Tornado (UK versions) - Technical data and discussion

Would be effective, more so than the Gr1 as its 11.0.

Its pretty simple to base bomb with CCRP, including lofting, just a bit overly fiddly due to poor interface.

A guide for CCRP in SB including lofting

Though its now 7x Mk83s or 6x Mk13s now (In SB)

Though I dont know how much score you actually get for events in SB. I usually don’t pay them any attention. Im after the Renown this time though, but not going to bother with the air one.

I thought you couldn’t do events in sim?

events were able, battle pass missions only got added recently with the newest updates

oooh right. I never knew that, if I knew that I wouldn’t have done the Tornado event in ARB ahaha

Just noticed the Tornado Gr1 can now carry 4x 1000lb G.P Mk.1 bombs. The stats seem identical a Mk13. So is there any real reason to take these in WT? Or are they meant to do something that isn’t modeled? Im guessing “G.P” stands for Ground Penetrating.

GP stands for General Purpose. So just a normal boom stick

Hmm… Yeah seems like a random addition then. No dfiferent to the normal Mk13s but you can only carry 4 not 12

Isn’t there two types of Mk 13 in game too? With like no difference

Yes what is the difference between the 1,000 lb H.E. M.C. Mk.13 and the 1,000 lb H.E. M.C. Mk.13 No. 117

The No117 have the Drag fins.

Oh right I forgot about that sorry.

Might have figured it out, maybe the G.Ps are the stock bombs? Mk13s/Mk83s are the “upgrade”

I think it’s just a bug with the loadouts.

Ah, thank you

I still find it a bit annoying that it doesn’t mark the thing you lock with the F.3s radar in the HUD. You only get an cross over it when you spool up a Missle

Yeah, its one of the main reasons that I kinda hate the F3 in ASB at the moment, It feels more like a chore to fly currently

The weapons here Is the Italian cluster roket/jet propelled bomb CASMU SkyShark (definetly not the AGM 130 of the GR1 picture above)

The bigger Problem for me is the Missles going to shit the longer the match goes on. They don’t fly straight anymore but wobble around and mostly don’t hit

In ASB? Yeah thats a bug, some kind of server de-sync when the match length goes past about 1 hour. Happens in Heli EC too. I quit a match after 24 Hellfire missiles missed a stationary target about 4km away whilst I was hovering. None were even close. Though the 9Ls do seem to sometimes have a just a crazy flight path, but I think that is to do with how they handle flares and trying to rapidly swap between targets
