It’s just the doubled up fuel dumping, you can see the 2 nozzles on the other tornado

Dmc is such a great series

I know but do you see that it’s non the same? Here I highlighted the variation in brightness

Idk maybe I’m wrong but those in the Tornado are not flames

46

You may be right but that was the only picture I could find where the fuel dump was alight

Now that you point it out they do kinda look like flares

47

This is a dump, not a dump and burn. I will search for other imagines so maybe we can understand

48

Yeah I said I knew it was a dump and I was looking for the pictures of the burn and that was the easiest one to find

Here’s a Gr.4

You can see the little white stream of fuel underneath the engines

I looked at the “dump” photo and I found out it’s a temporary overpressure caused by the switch off of the afterburners

The fuel jettison pipes are at the top of the fin (number 12)
So no dump and burn, sorry! :_(

That may just be the F Mk 2 bc this is definitely fuel dumping

Could be different systems on different models

Actually, that has nothing to do with the fuel dump, as the Tornado’s jettison outlet is located at the top rear of the fin. Instead, it is reheat drain: when reheat is cancelled, there’s a temporary overpressure caused by unburnt fuel (accumulated in the jet pipe, upstream of the nozzles, after being injested by the fuel injectors when the Afterburner ignitor is no longer functioning) that is automatically relieved by venting some 30 Kg (66 Lbs) of fuel through valves located underneath the jet pipe.

This is the explanation of the guy who wrote the article

Alrighty, but in theory that is in the right space to be used for a very short temporary dump and burn as seen here

So not really viable just a temporary burn, thanks for the info.

Yes viable for a temporary bump and burn
