Re: Saudi Arabia commits to Eurofighter Typhoon deal
Hmmm, quick search, Gulf War, day one.
"RSAF No 7 Squadron with GR1 Tornado, Commanded by LtCol Saeed - Saudi Flak-Suppression flight went 15 minutes ahead of a UK package attacking an Iraqi Airfield Complex with 3 parallel runways. LtCol Sultan, a former F-15 pilot and 1st 1000 hr Tornado pilot, pressed on alone from a flight of three after the others missed tankers."
