Thank you guys! Yeah, the Tornado definitely is a cool jet. Prepare to get spammed with another 7 of them in the coming month. I just need to take decent pictures of them.

Very good work Marius. I really like how you left it.
The Tornado has been an airplane that I have always liked a lot.
If you allow me the comment as an anecdote. At the 2016 Tiger Meet, I saw two German Tornadoes and it's amazing how dirty they could get.

Thank you so much guys! It's definitely not perfect. I find it annoying that there is no detailing set for the fuselage pylons, which are just flat on the underside.

Indeed the Tornado was and still is a dirty machine, especially the German ones for some reaso . I have no idea what the reason is. They were extensively used at some point, but I guess the ground crew doesn't operate with medical gloves and tiddy, shinny new shoes either.

Also this Tornado is spot-on! Great! Good idea to use the Eduard Komorans.

Outstanding build, paint job and weathering, Marius! 👌👌👌 Love the look of your Tornado.
Did you scratch the starter rails of the Kormoran missiles?

Marius
Thank you Bernd!
The launch rails for the Kormoran missiles are the same ones used also for the AGM-88 HARM missiles, which are included in the Revell kit of the ECR version. So I just used the parts from that kit.

These specific launch rails were mounted both under fuselage and wing pylons, for example here for the AGM-88:

And they were similarily used for the Kormoran:

I would have thought that it was 1:48. The paintjob and weathering is outstanding.

Album info

Revell kit at 1:72.

Panavia Tornado IDS of the German Navy, part of Marinefliegergeschwader 2 (MFG2) prior to merging with MFG1 in 1993.
The camouflage scheme is the standard Norm 87E, which is a norm initially designed and used exclusively by this navy unit.

After the disband of MFG2, some of the aircraft ended up in other units (replacing older batches) with several machines maintaining the old navy camouflage, while wearing their new unit markings either from the newly organized MFG1 or probably from other Luftwaffe units.

My model is armed here with two anti-ship missiles Kormoran 2. The German Tornados could carry a total of 4 Kormoran missiles, usually with two equipping the pylons below the fuselage and the other two on the wing pylons. When only two Kormoran missiles were equipped, it was rather usual to have them mounted under the fuselage. The configuration with only two Kormoran missiles on the wings did exist, but it was rather rare.
