Tornado's last Hurrah!

摘要

On Saturday January 26, 2019, RAF Tornado GR4s carried out one of their last airstrikes against ISIS before redeployment to RAF Marham on February 4 and 5, 2019. During that mission ZG791/137 ASCOT 9951 and ZA463/028 ASCOT 9952 dropped two Paveway IVs and fired two Brimstone missiles at a large group of ISIS terrorists hiding in three small buildings in farmland near the village of Baghouz, Deir ez-Zor. Shortly after the Tornados' attack, US Air Force B-1B Lancer bombers flying from Al-Udeid Air Base bombed the site; 42 ISIS terrorists and 13 of their family members were killed.
