The Panavia Tornado, a multi-role combat aircraft like no other, was the product of a unique European collaboration. Similarly, its virtual counterpart is a joint venture between celebrated developers Lago, Just Flight and the Royal Air Force. The result is a brilliantly detailed aircraft for Flight Simulator 2002/2004 and, as a bonus, there's a simplified version for Combat Flight Simulator 3.The 16 FS2002/2004 liveries include RAF, Luftwaffe, Italian and Royal Saudi Air Force colours. Take the Tornado up in Flight Simulator 2002/2004 from one of three custom airfields to try out the terrain-hugging radar, use the ground proximity warning system, or test your flying skills behind the VC-10 and KC-10 with the in-flight refuelling feature a first for Flight Simulator!. Realistic FS2002/2004 animations include cockpit canopy, pilots' heads, control surfaces, thrust reverser, refuelling probe and even the Tornado's famous swing-wing system. The front cockpit comes with a high-detail 2D panel incorporating moving map and rear view mirrors. The highly detailed HUD for FS2002 includes heading switches, radar altimeter, bank angle, velocity vector, heading and vertical rate indicators.For Combat Flight Simulator 3 the Tornado becomes a fearsome war machine clothed in three authentic liveries. Custom damage model and activated CFS3 weapons means you can take on the enemy and hit him where it hurts!Animations Cockpit canopy (including locking lever inside cockpit) ilots (heads move in the direction of flight and remove masks when canopy is opened) Control surfaces - airbrakes, flaps, spoilers, rudders, ailerons Thrust reverser, intake suction relief doors, refuelling probe and wing sweep, afterburner, vortices Wheels rotate, front wheel steers, taxi light follows wheel Co
