And the wing looks a mite on the variable geometry side to me.
And it ain't a Jaguar undercarriage.
So I suspect it might be a Tornado.

OK.. Gets on hands a knees and grovels ....
Looking at the picture its remarkably similar to a series of the pictures that I mentioned but agree this is not the same as in my post work haze I had not noticed the grass. Also the hangers don't look right..
So will agree ... Tornado ..
Pick's one up from knees to wish all well..

It *is* a Tornado, I've seen pics from other angles too, long ago.
The Jaguar people are referring to *was* in Oman but it took the roof off a car (sedan, what i think the Yanks call) and not a van as in this pic.
Plus the drop tank is striped in a manner that makes me believe I saw the pics on the 321 Tigers's site - a Luftwaffe Tornado ECR squadron.
