The Tornado is one of the most important NATO combat aircraft and, due to its modern electronics and outstanding flying characteristics, it forms the backbone of the European air defences. The reconnaissance squadron 51 "Immelmann" regularly takes part in the so-called NATO Tigermeets, in which members of the NATO Tiger Association put their experience and skills to the test in major exercises. Of course aircraft dressed in special livery also participate. In 2009 AG 51 took part for the first time with a specially painted "kite". On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of tactical air reconnaissance, the designer dreamed up something extra special. On the top the heraldic animal of AG 51 "I", the panther, again appears and on both sides of the vertical tail surface one sees the "Eye of the Tiger".
