The latest Special from HT Model in Slovakia continues their reputation of quality production, this time turning the attention to the Panavia Tornado, specifically the strike and reconnaissance versions. Like other HT Model specials, this book is packed with photos, with over 350 presented in the 60 pages. The heavy photo coverage means that virtually no corner is left unseen in this book, which makes it a superdetailer's dream reference.

While the extensive photo collection is probably the most impressive part of this book, there are also several detail drawings spread throughout the pages. Instrument panels, the engine bay, and electronic bays are all covered in small drawings, adding to the photo details. Also present are eighteen small four-view drawings showing all the different camouflage patterns worn by the Tornado. These will be of great use to the modeler, as will the 35 color profiles. Rounding out the book is a set of scale drawings, making this a great all-around reference on the Tornado.

With several Tornado models out there to choose from, this book will help modelers take those kits to the next level, and the truly ambitious could use this book to open up every panel on their Tornado for a real showstopper. My thanks to HT Model for the review sample. Visit their website to order your copy soon before they sell out.
