AR5 Respirator
5 Sqn InlayFighter Squadron

Fighter Squadron is a video designed for all those arm chair fast-jet pilots. Take a look inside an establishment that only the privileged 'usually' get invited into.

5 Squadron, RAF Coningsby - UK, have opened their doors for an unprecedented guided tour of a fully operational Tornado Squadron. O.C. 5 Squadron Wg/Cdr Phil Spencer introduces the viewer to the Squadron Operating Facility and its NBC warfare provisions; Pilot Flt/Lt Steve Heaney walks you around his jet and shows you inside the cockpit, while his Navigator Flt/Lt Gary Coleman explains the Jets complex computer navigation system.

A years worth of training missions are compiled into this tape including action from: Cope Thunder, Alaska; Operation Nomad, RAF Waddington; Exercise Brilliant Foil, RAF Coningsby; Exercise Linked Seas, Spain and 5 Sqn's air-to-air and air-to-ground strafing mission. Plus missile firings including inverted Sky Flash launches.

5 Squadron's ground crew are filmed hard at work handling Sky Flash and Sindwinder missiles during an Operation Turn Round (OTR), loading the F3's 27mm Mauser Canon with rounds for a strafing mission, plus we take a look around their Hardened Equipment Shelter and other working ares.

Plus - the social side. 5 Sqn have a association with the Honorable Company of Basket Makers from London. Why? All is revealed in this video.

EXCLUSIVE - Inside a North Sea Air Combat Manoeuvring Instrumentation (NS ACMI) de-brief theatre. The nearest thing to being an RAF Officer!
