No wonder the Tornados took alot of AA losses, as they came in at the deck to take out runways. The Iraqis lined up AAA on both sides of the runways, combined with experienced AA-gunners from the Iran-Iraq war, and you have a massacre. And it would have been so whatever the plane going in that way.
You also have to remember that the acomplished the mission of knocking out their runways.
