This Tornado made its first flight on 16 July 1987, was delivered to the Marineflieger (German Naval Aviation) on 13 October 1987 and assigned to Marinefliegergeschwader (MFG) 2. When MFG 2 was disbanded in 2005, the Tornado was transferred to the Luftwaffe and assigned to JBG 32. The aircraft is seen here while undergoing heavy maintenance at home base, Lechfeld. In 2008, the Tornado was withdrawn from use and most probably scrapped soon after. This photo is copyright © Stephan de Bruijn, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
