Early Lightning variants suffered from limited endurance, so in 1963, work began on an Extended Range Aircraft (ERA), featuring a much larger ventral tank, twin dorsal fins, a new wing with a leading-edge camber and ???kinked??? outer wing panels. Production switched to a further improved variant that could use overwing tanks and the XR769 was built in December 1965. During its service career it operated with No???s. 74, 5 and finally 11 squadron at Binbrook, Lincs. The aircraft was lost on 11th April 1988 when it crashed off the Humber Estuary. The pilot Flt Lt. Dick Coleman of the Royal Australian Air Force ejected safely.

A special version of the Corgi Tornado representing the Royal Saudi Airforce Tornado IDS flying with RAF markings.

This model is a Corgi authorised modified original release (AA33612) that accurately portrays the RSAF Tornado from the TSP program.

The first unit to receive the A-10 in March 1976, the 355th W recently celebrated three decades of uninterrupted service with the jet. Although missing out on Operation Desert Storm and Iraqi Freedom I, the wing recently sent to 354th FS into combat from Bagram AB in support of Coalition forces fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan as art of Operation Enduring Freedom. The squadron??s jets flew daily operations in-theater from late 2005 through February 2006. Aside from short spells in storage in then nearby Aerospace Maintenance & Regeneration Center, this particular aircraft has served exclusively with the 355th since it was delivered to the USAF in 1979.'
