1/700 Eurocopter Tiger ARH (x12)

This kit is in 1/700 scale. It includes 12x Eurocopter Tiger ARH attack helicopters. This version of the Tiger is used by the Australian Defence Force. The UHT version is also available from this shop as used by the German Military. They are connected as a single sprue by a wire under the main body of the aircraft. Once the wire is cut the aircraft do not require any finishing.

According to Wikipedia: "The Tiger ARH (Armed Reconnaissance Helicopter) is the version ordered by the Australian Army to replace its OH-58 Kiowas and UH-1 Iroquois-based 'Bushranger' gunships. The Tiger ARH is a modified and upgraded version of the Tiger HAP with upgraded MTR390 engines as well as a laser designator incorporated in the Strix sight for the firing of Hellfire II air-to-ground missiles. Instead of SNEB unguided rockets, the ARH will use 70 mm (2.75 in) rockets from Belgian developer, Forges de Zeebruges (FZ). 22 of the variant were ordered in December 2001. Most of the helicopters will be operated by the 1st Aviation Regiment based at Robertson Barracks in Darwin."
