It entered service in 1979, used by the air forces of NATO countries. Its versatility allowed it to be used as a bomber, reconnaissance aircraft, and interceptor; among its most notable operations were combat missions during Operation Desert Storm in 1991 as well as peacekeeping and combat missions throughout the 1990s up to modern times.
