I think that I rest my case.

The Lightning and the Buccaneer might have a bigger fan base. There's no doubt that the Hunter did a lot of stuff.

You might think it was a dog, built by committee for compromised reasons, but for Combat Air, which RAF aircraft has been more significant in the last 60 years than the Tornado?

I think that given the wars into which the UK and the RAF has been forced in the last 20+ years, there are lots of reasons to be grateful to the Tornado GR and its crews.
