Tornado GR4 with Raptor Reconnaissance Pod
A Tornado GR4 aircraft operated by the Royal Air Force, takes off from RAF Marham in Norfolk.
A Raptor Airborne Reconnaissance Pod can be seen fitted beneath the fuselage.
The images received by the pod can be transmitted via a real-time data-link system to image analysts at a ground station, or can be displayed in the cockpit during flight. The imagery can also be recorded for post-flight analysis.
The RAPTOR system can create images of hundreds of separate targets in one sortie; it is capable of autonomous operation against preplanned targets, or it can be re-tasked manually for targets of opportunity or to select a different route to the target.
The stand-off range of the sensors allows the aircraft to remain outside heavily-defended areas, to minimise the aircrafts exposure to enemy air-defence systems
