==Overview:==
"What the bloody slag is that thing?!" is the general response given by anyone
who happens to be on the wrong end of this bizarre new vehicle. 

Thanks to its XL engine, it can achieve speeds normally only reserved for
hovercraft and airborne units; this alone is often enough of a shock value to
unnerve would-be opponents. But once the crew starts firing and the three jet
pack troopers deploy, even the bravest of soldiers often find their courage
tested.

The primary armament of the Tornado is a standard PPC; this allows it to
threaten battle armor and light mechs while stinging heavier units. Twin SRM 4
racks, each with their own ton of ammo, serve as back-ups; the fact that each
has its own bin allows the unit to use both standard and inferno rounds at the
same time. An RL 10 and a machine gun serve as anti-infantry defense should
any infantry survive the inferno rounds.
