Royal Air Force Tornado GR.4 diverts to Malta IAP

A Royal Air Force Tornado GR.4 (ZG791/137) was forced to divert to Malta IAP this early morning after the crew reported a hydraulic failure. The British fighter-bomber landed safely on RWY31 at about 0500LT. The airport emergency services were deployed on the adjacent taxiways for an any eventuality.
