RAF Tornado Crash

The BBC are reporting both crew died in the crash and that their families have been informed. Two Tornado F3's were taking part in low flying training and witnesses agree that one of the F3's was lower than the other and was a lot lower than they normally fly.

Sympathies to the family and friends of the crew.
 
I do wonder what it was they were training for, though?
As demonstrated in Desert Storm, being consistently shot down by small arms fire at low level is not a winning tactic in any present combat scenario...
