EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, two Tornado F3s from 1435 Flight stationed at Mount Pleasant soar gracefully over the breathtaking Falkland Islands. As they patrol the skies with unwavering vigilance, these powerful jets showcase their remarkable specifications. With two RB199 turbofans propelling them forward, these aircraft generate an impressive thrust of 16,410 lbs. Their maximum speed reaches a staggering 2.2 Mach, allowing them to swiftly navigate through any challenges that come their way. Measuring at a length of 18.62 meters and boasting a wingspan of 8.6 meters, these Tornado F3s dominate the airspace above the Falklands with their imposing presence. Ascending to heights up to 50,000 feet, they provide an unmatched vantage point for surveillance and protection. Manned by a skilled aircrew of two individuals who exemplify dedication and expertise in their roles as defenders of the sky, these formidable machines are armed with an array of weaponry including AMRaM missiles, ASRaM missiles, Skyflash missiles, AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles, ALARM systems for defense suppression purposes and Mauser cannons. Cpl Darren Smith's photograph perfectly captures not only the awe-inspiring landscape and terrain below but also showcases the sheer power and majesty exuded by these jet aircraft on patrol duty over this remote British Overseas Territory in South Atlantic Ocean - The Falkland Islands.
