Royal Air Force 43 Squadron 'Fighting Cocks' Panavia Tornado F.3 ZE831/GG on finals for RAF Leuchars during the 'Battle of Britain' Airshow in September 1994
After demonstrating a 'pairs' Airfield Defence scenario, Royal Air Force No.43 'Fighting Cocks' Squadron's Panavia Tornado F.3 ZE831/GG returns to RAF Leuchars during their 1994 'Battle of Britain' Air display
Now retired from service, all bar a handful of this Air Defence Variant of the 'MRCA' have been processed through BAE's facility at RAF Leeming where having been stripped of all usable parts saved for the ageing and still current Tornado GR.4 fleet, the remaining airframes were shredded!
In the meantime RAF Leuchars itself was closed and turned over to the Army.
