Shortly after the start of the operations in August 1995 at the german Combat Wing 1 (CW-1) which was established in Piacenza, Italy, to support the the UN missions in former Yugoslavia, the flying crews critisized the wrong camouflage schemes of their Tornados (Norm 83B/C), which was optimized for low level missions in central Europe. Because of the expected mission profiles in medium to high altitudes, and to avoid the danger of early recognition by ground and air forces, they requested to re-paint the aircraft with an appropriate grey camouflage scheme. The problem for the paint specialists was, that there was neither an official given norm for the Tornado, nor an adequate grey color available. Nevertheless was the urgent need of the new color accepted and the operational jets painted with the next available grey color. What came out in this fast reaction, and what funny details there were, can be seen on our print. Nevertheless: flexibility is the key to success!
