This is just a peek at the unprecedented combination of speed and
lethal firepower you'll find in TORNADO -- the Allies' most deadly
strike fighter.
TORNADO lets you fly over four European combat areas with hundreds
of thousands of objects - buildings, roads, power lines, trees and
much more. From tanks to TV towers to rivers and railways, TORNADO
features ultrarealistic 3-D world terrain rivaling the military's
own top secret simulators.
Featuring the most sophisticated mission planning system ever seen
in any flight simulation game, TORNADO lets you set your autopilot
parameters, check your waypoint flight times, fuel consumption,
altitude and airspeed with the most complex fighter jet avionics
ever created.
Corner your enemy in a high-speed synchronized attack with up to five
other Tornados. Achieve maximum punch when you combine blinding
speed and a multidirectional attack formation to cripple your
target's defenses.
Use your Desert Storm-tested laser-guided "smart" bombs to knock out
enemy hangars and SAM sites. Cluster bombs and dispensers buckle
heavily-defended enemy airstrips. Plus, a state-of-the-art infrared
camera and you'll get an owl's eye view of your target in the dead
of night. Add a healthy supply of Sidewinder, Sky Flash, and ALARM
missiles and the latest in air-to-air and air-to-ground radar and
you have total air superiority.
