The Eurocopter Tiger is an attack helicopter manufactured by the Eurocopter Group. In Germany it is known as the EC-665 and in France it is called the PAH-2. In 1984 the French and German governments issued a requirement for an advanced multi-role battlefield helicopter program beginning late. The EUROCOPTER Group owned 70% by AEROSPATIALE France and 30% by Daimler Aerospace (DASA) of Germany Due to high costs the program was canceled in 1986 but was relaunched during 1987. Subsequently in November 1989 Eurocopter received a contract to build 5 prototypes. Three were to be unarmed testbeds and the other two armed prototypes: one for the German anti-tank variant and the other for the French escort helicopter variant. Models are supplied unpainted and some assembly may be required.
