Anybody (airframes/engines/instruments/avionics) know what the current
training course(s) content is/are for groundcrew tasked to stations
supporting these aircraft?

The training courses are carried in the Tornado Maintenance School
at RAF Marham and cover both GR-4 and F-2/3 variants. Facilities include

The Ground Instructional Aircraft (GIA) is a hybrid Tornado F2/F3 with fully
functional electrical power and hydraulics systems .

A GR4 Avionics Ground Training Rig (AGTR)

The Propulsion Systems Training Rig (PSTR) which
is used for all variants

Is it a fair 'thought' that the fitters are so narrowly trained that they
can only work on a particular airframe and are confined to discrete
Mark(s)?

No

Is it still the case that a RAF Fitter will be 'concept' trained and
expected to follow the APs and schedules dictated by the F720's? {not to
mention the over-arching F700).

Indeed
