On 9 August 1994, five 15sq Tornado's from RAF Lossiemouth arrived at Gilze Rijen for a squadron rotation with the locally based 314sq. On 18 August the rotation came to an end. The squadron was disbanded on 31 March 2017 in preparation for the retirement of the Tornado GR4 in 2019. This ZA594 was first flown as a GR1 on 22 February 1982. It was delivered to the RAF on 30 March 1982. Following a long career in the RAF, and modified to GR4, the aircraft was stored at RAF Leeming in early 2017 and eventually scrapped by late 2017.
