Friesland Scorpions by Robert Tomlin. The 2nd Squadron of Fighter-Bomber Wing 38 Friesland is the only squadron in Northern Germany to operate the Tornado weapon system. Their main task is to support the Main Defence Forces (HVK) to protect Germany and its Allies. Additionally their crews train co-operation between themselves and reaction forces of NATO and the UN. The 2nd Squadron, the youngest German Tornado squadron, was established in 1988 with the introduction of the Tornado ECR (Electronic Combat Reconnaissance) into the German Air Force. The crews perform the service tests until the ECR achieved operational readiness. With the changing political situation in Europe, the ECRs were transferred in 1994 to FBW 32 at Lechfield. The Squadron then re-equipped with Tornado IDS (Interdiction and Strike) and changed its role to fighter-bombers. At the moment the crews train in all tactical roles except nuclear. As the German Air Force continues its re-organisation, the squadron will close in 1999. In the foreground of this print is a Tornado IDS painted in the special colours of 2 Squadron. Behind is the last Tornado ECR of FBW 38 F. They are depicted over the Westerhöven Lighthouse, a famous landmark on the coastline of the Friesian Islands of Northern Germany, an area over which the Squadron frequently flies.
