Hi
To the original post's author, DotChuckles, it is 2016 and you now have your wish. Well, almost. Let me explain.
Most modern flight sims of 2016, that feature the Panavia Tornado, have long outstripped Tornado in the graphics and realism departments. We're talking beautiful graphics, clickable buttons, photo-realistic pilot and navigator stations, shadows falling over the cockpit, air-to-air refueling, realistic avionics, terrain-following radar, detailed and accurate real-life landscape that whizzes by you as you fly nap-of-the-earth, and a 101 other mouth-watering things. It has never been more immersive to fly a Panavia Tornado than it is today.
It is just that Digital Integration's Tornado was the complete package that included a killer mission planner to plan coordinated multiplane attackes, enemy AI that shot you out of the sky, tons of targets and structures to blow up, numerous missions and a dynamic campaign to die for. You would be hard-pressed to find a 'complete Tornado package' in any modern sim today.
