Those Tornados are barely hanging in the air as-is and spare parts are exceedingly hard to get you really don't want to expose them to war conditions. The ECR ones are getting replaced by (upgraded and/or new) Eurofighters ASAP, the rest are to drop nukes and thus really only have to fly once anyway (and will be replaced by F35 because Eurofighter doesn't want their secret sauce in US hands, which would be required to get US nukes certified, we might very well switch over to French nukes when it comes to nuclear sharing (While the French definitely aren't above a bit of industrial espionage they already know everything through Airbus etc. anyway)).
