Tornado Loadout

[Crab Paste !!!]

I'm hoping someone can help me with a small problem that I have. I'm trying to improve a flight simulator by having the correct weapon loadouts for the Tornado GR4.

I appreciate that some of the questions might be confidential.

This is what I've got at the moment:

540lb slick and parachute retarded bombs x 8 on Fuselage

1000lb slick and parachute retarded bombs x 8 on Fuselage

Cluster Bombs BL755 / RBL755 x 4 on Fuselage (Prob 8 Max- (Not sure if still in inventory coz of Ottawa Treaty )
The RBL755 is a modified version of the BL755 developed after the Gulf war to provide for medium-altitude operation. This variant of the BL755 has been used by NATO in Operation Allied Force in Yugoslavia. It can be dropped from altitudes above 10,000 ft.

Paveway II LGB x 3 on Forward Fuselage and centreline station.

Paveway III LGB x 2 on Forward Fuselage.

Enhanced Paveway II & III No's as PII and PIII

ALARM's x 9 max (see pics below for verification)(would probably have 7 Max and use fuel tanks or 5 and have fuel and sidewinders)
Tornado IDS model requires an extra outside rack on each fuel pylon.

1 x 27mm Mauser Rounds x ?
Gr1 has 2 x 27mm

TIALD Pod - Where is it located ?

JP233 (Out of Service - When ?)

Sea Eagle (Out of Service - When ?)



Do GR4's carry 2000lb bombs ?
Do the Paveways have Spam equivalents i.e. GBU-16 for Paveway II etc
Is a Paveway II 540lb, 1000lb or 2000lb ?
Is a Paveway III 540lb, 1000lb or 2000lb ?
Will the Paveway IV be just 540lb ?
What sizes does the Enhanced paveway come in ?
Will the GR4 get ASRAAM ?
Is a 540lb bomb also called a Mk82 ?
Is a 1000lb bomb also called a Mk83 ?
Is a 2000lb bomb also called a Mk84 ?

Dodgy question: Does the GR4 radar have a limited Air to Air capability for it's Aim-9's ?

Can the Radar only be in either A-G or A-A at the same time ?

Anything else that you think will be of benefit will be greatly appreciated.

If any of you chaps know a Harrier pilot called Flt Moon, tell him Gaz from 1301 says hello and that he owes me a flight.

Cheers for your time.

Crab Paste !!! :ok:

You forgot to say "Allah akbar" at the end of the post :E

Hello young friend from the North-Wetern fishing port. Has anyone briefed you on the 'need to know' principle, and the fact that the internet is open country?

[L Peacock]

A little unfair since most, if not all this stuff is in the public domain. Agree this is probably not the best place to ask the questions though.
Have you tried getting the Air Force or BAe on board? They're best placed to know what is and isn't x-box unclassified.

[Crab Paste !!!]

As I said, If it's confidential don't answer.

All of the above info was gathered from t'internet, if it can be confirmed or clarified that would be great.

Green meat, can you march yet ? :E

"Allah akbar"

[Onan the Clumsy]

that's better ;)

[heights good]

crab paste do you have a girlfriend or wife i suggest you get out a bit more :)

Heights good

[Crab Paste !!!]

I'm sorry to disappoint you heights good, but I'm happily married and heterosexual.

Can I suggest that you stay in more.

[Green Meat]

Marching whilst you were in short pants! Not in short pants, you understand. Well, not unless the - what's the modern phrase...DI - took a fancy to it...

Fish paste registers on the 13th, now posting bollo@cks all over the shop, has the shape shifting southside returned in another guise:yuk:

[Green Meat]

Possibly, but there is a broad, whacking hint as to his identity in the end of his post. Little specific for our shape-shifter friend?
