The Hobbymaster Tornado GR.1B RAF AJ-Q/ZA456, N0. 617 Sqn "Dambusters", Lossiemouth, 1995 (with 2 x Sea Eagle Missiles) Scale 1/72 HA6721 is a diecast model aircraft replica of the Panavia Tornado GR.1B fighter-bomber in the markings of No. 617 Squadron of the Royal Air Force (RAF). The aircraft is depicted as it appeared in 1995 while stationed at RAF Lossiemouth in Scotland. The model is in 1/72 scale and includes two Sea Eagle anti-ship missiles mounted under the wings.
The Panavia Tornado is a twin-engine, variable-sweep wing jet aircraft that was jointly developed by the United Kingdom, Germany, and Italy. The GR.1B variant was the RAF's primary strike aircraft for many years and saw action in a number of conflicts, including the Gulf War and the Kosovo War.
No. 617 Squadron, also known as the "Dambusters", is a famous RAF squadron that was formed in 1943 for Operation Chastise, the bombing of German dams in the Ruhr Valley. The squadron continues to operate today and is currently equipped with the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II.
The Hobbymaster HA6721 model is a highly detailed and accurate replica of the Tornado GR.1B. It is a great way to commemorate the aircraft and the Dambusters' legacy.
