Panavia Tornado (UK versions) - Technical data and discussion

Pod was never carried on the centreline because it restricts the viewing and lasing angles to an unnecessary degree.
In the rare occasions where 4x 500lb paveways were carried, the 4th was on the centreline station and the pod remained in its usual place on the forward port station

That’s cool. Confirms 500 lb Paveways can go on the centreline

Cheers added that to the GR1 GBU-12 suggestion.

The Devs will address the Simulator BR discrepancy between the ADV and F.3, the suggestion was to lower the F.3 to be at the same level as the ADV but they didn’t confirm which way they were going. @Morvran

anything im missing btw? atleast i can bookmark it so its easier to keep track of on my end now.

correctly working BOL pods with the right Chaff /Flare amounts comes to my mind, not sure if that counts as bug or feature to be added

errrr, the BOL pods are correct afaik?

thanks but propably wouldnt have been necesary i think smin would have said sth in this thread otherwise Tornados Ids bugs. Nerfs. useless 11.0 - #110 by Panther2995

But producer & dev might think unlike you

I guess Tornado F3 CSP might be standalone new fighter aircraft from Tornado F3 in tech tree

Yeah they will most likely make an F.3 (late) which has AMRAAMs and ASRAAMs.

More interested in seeing how the GR.4 comes out. Let’s see if they actually give it some of its capabilities. Su39 gets IRCCM but they still can’t give us the Sky Shadow radar jamming pods.

I have to make the choice now which tornado to get (both researched but i only have 1.5M) and im just asking if any good changes are coming to either one because im torn between them
