[Vehicles] RAF Tornado GR4

[[R-DEV]Rhino]

The RAF Tornado GR4 is a Fighter-Bomber, 2 seater twin engine class of Jet which is capable of low-level, super sonic flight and comes with a few other neat features like sweep back wings and capable of delivering a wide variety of weapons.

Myself and a few other Dev/Cons have been working over the past few months with converting the OPK, German Tornado IDS into a RAF Tornado GR4, aswell as tweaking its performance to be like the other jets in PR, which is still in progress
Thou they are more or less the same aircraft, there is a few differences thou most of them being software and bits under the skin that you cant see, there is a few small difference like the TIALD (Thermal Imaging Airborne Laser Designator) pod, the Sky Shadow-2 electronic countermeasures pod and a few other small things, which have been modeled, UVed, imported and attached by myself.
The skin tweaks have been done by [R-CON]Geze which has been doing a really nice job on lots of our skin tweaks as to date
The new Paveway II LGB (Laser Guided Bomb) and Brimstone Air to Surface AT Missile where modeled and skinned by [R-DEV]Stigger (which you can also see on his Harrier renders) and Imported by myself.

Thanks for OPK to let us use there excellent model which you can see more of here: Operation Peacekeeper - A Battlefield 2 Modification : Tornado IDS - strike aircraft

This is still WIP with lots of fixes still to be done but its in a good state now to show to you guys, hope you like it

wow the brits are really gettin loaded up with goodies in this mod. im curious where this aircraft slots in though because now we have for the UK:
the Eurofighter - fighter jet
the harrier - i think this is for ground attack? like the A-10?
the tornado - i guess this is also for ground attack? im sort of confused but regardless its still awesome. but i thought britain was phasing out the tornado?

The SU-30MMK which was only used in 1 map on vBF2 (Darqin Oilfileds) so no one really noticed it

3 main classes of Jet in PR, well only 2 in the current release since we dont use the 3rd class at the moment.

Fighter jet, like the EF2000, J-10, F-16 etc.
Attack Jet, like the A-10, Harrier etc.
Fighter-Bombers, Tornado GR4, F-15, Su-30MMK etc.

nothing that the battle recorder and the debugger cant do. I did cheat a little I forced the debugger to run all the objects (apart from the trees) in there highest LOD and always be culled aswell as the normal disabling nametags and HUD
