Summary[edit]

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description This is a screenshot from the 1993 PC flight simulator game, Tornado, developed by Digital Integration. It shows a Tornado flying low-level over an European target-rich area. It is a flat-shaded polygon game that did not use Gouraud shading that was employed by other games of that pre-graphics card era.

Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) Tornado (1993 video game)
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) Tornado's 1991 graphics engine used flat-shaded polygons (Circa 1991) to generate the 3D visuals. It will give the reader a clear example of the game's visuals. The box covert-art image which exists in the article is a poor representation of the in-game graphics. Hence the need to show this image.
Not replaceable with
free media because
(WP:NFCC#1)
The Tornado PC game is unique in that there is no other DOS game like it, featuring a Panavia Tornado depicted as 3D flat-shaded polygons.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) This is only the second of two images in the article. It does not appear anywhere else in Wikipedia. The file size is a mere 4.54 KB (4,651 bytes) in size.
Respect for
commercial opportunities
(WP:NFCC#2)
Digital Integration's 1993 PC game, Tornado, is an old DOS game that is no longer popular. It is played more for nostalgic reasons than as in competition against more current flight simulators like DCS, X-Plabe or FSX. Displaying this image will not affect any sales because the game is out of print and there is no Steam or GOG.com distribution page for the game.
Other information It shows the Tornado in flight in the European campaign.
