Background story

The GBU-24 is a high precission LASER guided bomb derived from the Paveway series. Its development goes back to the year 1965 and was initiated by Texas Instruments after the Bell Laboratories had developped the necessary LASER. The first successful applications of this weapon were achieved after enormous failures in e.g. Beirut 1983, in 1986 during the attack of Libya after the Lockerby terrorist attacks. Later in the golf wars the americans had spectacular success with the laser guided bunker busters.

Since June 2010 there are no more Tornados at FBW 31 when the last one left for Büchel airbase, home of FBW 33. FBW 31 has converted to the new Eurofighter.
