This long-awaited video explains the role of the Panavia Tornado GR.1 in the 1991 Gulf War, highlighting it's role leading to the successes in the first parts of the war as a key element of Operation Granby. Using the JP233 Runway Denial system, the Tornados cut off Iraqi aircraft from their runways, helping to ground the IrAF. Later in the war, the Tornados went up to medium altitudes with Buccaneers, whose Pave Spike pods helping to guide the Tornado's LGBs to target.
