Panavia Tornado GR4 (IDS) aircraft still form the backbone of the strike capability of Britain's Royal Air Force and this is a fine rendition of one from Corgi Aviation. This is a readily assembled diecast 1/72 scale model which carries a current service registration and the lighter RAF Tactical Grey colour scheme which has now superceded the darker Tactical Grey which was first seen during 1994. 'Operation Ellamy' (Op Ellamy) was the second major strike made during 2011 by Western air forces against Colonel M Gaddafi's regime in Libya: The first being made during 1986 by the United States Air Force who lost two personnel and a GD F-111E Aardvark aircraft. 'Op Ellamy' sustained no British casualties and was the first deployment in anger for the Eurofighter EF-2000 Typhoon. Supplemented by the Panavia Tornado GR4 and BAC Nimrod R1A aircraft both of which had seen acticve service prior to 2011. A must have model for the collector? Sure is IMHO!Read full review
