The Panavia Tornado was a twin-engine jet combat aircraft created by the Panavia Aircraft GmbH consortium, which included Germany, Italy and Great Britain. There were three main variants of Tornado aircraft in service with the RAF: GR.1, GR.4 and GR.4A. The GR.1 model was the first version introduced into service in the 1980s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTornados were used as ground support aircraft, fighters and for attacks on air targets. They were capable of carrying a variety of weapons, including guided bombs and rockets. RAF Tornado aircraft have participated in a variety of conflicts and operations, including the Persian Gulf War, Operation Allied Force over Kosovo, Operation Iraqi Freedom and the fight against ISIS over Iraq and Syria. The last Tornado aircraft were withdrawn from RAF service in 2019.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey were replaced by more modern Typhoon and F-35 Lightning II aircraft, which are also in the COBI collection!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e527 high-quality elements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufactured in the EU by a company with over 35 years of tradition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe blocks meet the safety standards of products for children\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully compatible with other brands of construction blocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlocks with prints do not scratch or smear and do not fade during play or under the influence of temperature\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClear and intuitive instructions based on illustrations and step-by-step directions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% prints, no stickers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlock display stand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA plate with the name of the set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo pilot figures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel dimensions (L x W x H): 36 cm (14.1\") x 28 cm (11\") 13 cm (5.1\")\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cobi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51728080896343,"sku":"COBI-5854","price":65.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/2119\/7911\/files\/f3465fdfbb23ab30089b6300655e06d4.jpg?v=1758131592","url":"https:\/\/cobi.com\/products\/cobi-panavia-tornado-gr-1-mig-eater-set-5854","provider":"COBI Official Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
