I questioned whether the Tornado GR4s were laser designating Typhoon bombs. It would appear to be the case that Tornado GR4s are target marking

I can suggest that a split marker/bomber solution can work well if the marker has to go low to designate as the bomber can remain high, have a reduced fuel burn, and achieve a greater TV.
