Italeri 1/48 Tornado GR.1/IDS - Kit summary

The Tornado GR.1/IDS is a versatile European-designed combat aircraft, recognised for its twin engines and variable-geometry wings. It was adapted across roles including ground attack and tactical reconnaissance.

Combat use and performance brief

Seen in action during the Gulf War, the Tornado proved effective at low-altitude strike missions. With two afterburning turbofan engines, the platform can achieve speeds up to approximately Mach 2.2 under certain conditions.

What this model offers builders

This Italeri 1/48 kit provides a detailed set of parts with a colour instruction leaflet and a super decals sheet offering six different liveries. The kit supplies everything required to build a faithful Tornado GR.1/IDS display model.

Specifications

  • 1/48 scale model
  • Manufactured from PS plastic
  • Assembly: glue needed
  • Includes a super decal sheet for six versions
While novice builders can attempt it, prior experience with subassemblies and fine trimming helps. Expect several small parts and the need for precise alignment on the swing wings.
The kit includes a super decals sheet with six marking schemes, enabling you to choose from multiple authentic finishes for display.
The model features components that represent the variable-sweep wing configuration; careful assembly is required if you want the wings posed in different positions.
Basic modelling tools such as cutters, files, glue and paints are needed. For finer detail, consider fine brushes, masking tape and optional aftermarket enhancements.
