  19. Tornado GR4 / GR4A Variable swept-wing, all-weather strike or reconnaissance aircraft. Terrain-following radar, Forward Looking Infra Red (FLIR) and night-vision goggles give it a full night capability. Laser target-marker allows self-designation of target for laser guided bomb operations. Full air-to-ground weapons capability including suppression of enemy air-defence systems. FLIR system enables the GR4A to conduct low-level, tactical reconnaissance missions.
