Panavia Tornado
In the 1970s, the United Kingdom, Italy, and West Germany collaborated on this fighter jet. The Panavia Tornado was designed to perform a variety of combat tasks and became a standard in several European military. In this day and age, it is still a part of some of them. The air defense, interdictor/strike, and electronic warfare/reconnaissance versions were the three primary variations. It can reach Mach 2.2 speeds while flying high in the sky. The maximum speed at sea level, on the other hand, is 900 miles per hour. Because of its variable-sweep wings, it is recognized for its mobility. The cockpit is also quiet and large, which pilots appreciate. These characteristics have made it the ideal military plane.

Dassault Alpha Jet
Did you know that the Dassault/Dornier Alpha was developed in partnership between Germany and France? They each had their own motivations for doing so. It was intended for service as a training aircraft by France, while light assault missions were planned by Germany. The French version was known as Alpha Jet E, whereas the German version was known as Alpha Jet A. The French had been ecstatic with its performance, while some commanders thought it was almost too forgiving in its handling. It made transitioning to other planes more difficult. German Alpha Jets, on the other hand, began to be phased out in the 1990s. They sold a large number of the planes to private owners and other forces. Four of them were purchased by the Flying Bulls, who utilize them in air displays.
