On the 14th August 1974, the Panavia Tornado took to the skies for the first time. In 2024, this multinational, multirole aircraft marks 50 years since its first flight and still flies today with the Luftwaffe, Aeronautica Militare and Royal Saudi Air Force. The Royal Air Force, previously being one of the 3 original operators, retired their last Tornados in 2019.

In War Thunder, you can find the Tornado in several variants in the German, British and Italian trees. To mark this occasion, we’ve prepared a special commemorative decal and a discount on the Tornado IDS WTD 61 Pack in the Gaijin store.
