Panavia Tornado F3 in-flight refueling nozzle

The Royal Air Force took delivery of Tornado F3 ZE758 on 9 March 1988. Having served as an air-defender with various RAF squadrons, the aircraft was withdrawn from use for spares recovery in April 2009. Soon after it was scrapped.

Fill her up, please

One of the parts that was salvaged when the aircraft was scrapped, was this refueling nozzle. Thousands of pounds of fuel were transferred to ZE758 via this nozzle. A very cool looking and recognisable part at the end of the refueling probe. A freestanding item that can easily be incorporated into your interior.

Panavia Tornado

The Panavia Tornado was the result of a cooperation between German, Italy and the United Kingdom. British Aerospace, MBB and Aeritalia formed the Panavia Aircraft company that designed and produced almost 1,000 Tornado swing-wing multirole combat aircraft. The main variant was the IDS version (interdictor/strike). Two other versions were the ECR version (electronic combat/recconnaissance) and the ADV (air defence variant). The type came into service in the early eighties. Saudi Arabia was the only other country ordering the type.
