[Fictional] Panavia Tornado GR.1H for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2

---

Mod of guuruu's great Tornado GR.1 to make it look like a fictional fighter-bomber plane for the greek air force.

BACKGROUND STORY

The fulfilment of the Peace Xenia I contract, signed with the Reagan administration in 1987, got delayed short before the first aircraft could be handed over to the HAF. As a reason for this delay, the Pentagon stated important matters of foreign security, since the Soviet Union (and the Warsaw Pact) started to show significant signs of wear and the beginning emancipation of the eastern block countries. Therefore, the Pentagon wanted to use the aircraft to reinforce overseas units with them. In exchange, the HAF got offered a significant discount for the next contract, Peace Xenia II. Greece, not willing to wait, got in touch with Panavia via the german ministry for foreign affairs.

Panavia offered the HAF 36 Tornado GR.1 from a cancelled order, partly produced, which could be delivered in a short period of time. The HAF accepted the conditions for the aircraft and was able to introduce the first sixteen GR.1H in January 1989, assigning them to the 330 Moira Keravnos (Lightning). The remaining 20 aircraft got delivered during the following 18 months.
