Modern German Attack Helicopter

Post by paul »

I know Germany uses the BO 105 helicopter but do they also use any other attack helicopter?

The Unterstützungshubschrauber Tiger or Tiger UH. Thisversion is without the 30mm cannon. Germany has ordered 57 ofthem bt I do not know how many have been delivered.

If my Google-Fu is correct, the BO-105 was replaced by the Eurocopter Tiger in phases from 2011 to 2013. Currently there is only one attack helicopter regiment (#36) in Bundeswehr service.

Thanks Cama, I try my best. The German name may be impressive but simply means long range support.

Both GHQ version of the Eurocopter look like they have the 30mm cannon. Should I remove it if I'm doing German helos?

Yes. No chin gun and mast mounted sight. You can see it in the second half of this

Not that I have completed it correctly....
I used Aussie Tiger, painted in 3-tone, I wanted the individual missile canisters vs. the French box for the ATGM.
May I suggest to use the Aussie Tiger, put a sight/light/ up front and a sighting system on the mast. Another company that has had Tigers for several years has the sight mounted on the mast without the gun system.
