1/700 Eurocopter Tiger UHT (x12)

This kit is in 1/700 scale. It includes 12x Eurocopter Tiger UHT attack helicopters. This version of the Tiger is used by the German Military. The ARH version is also available from this shop as used by the Australian Defence Force. 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 UHT (German for Support Helicopter Tiger) is a medium-weight multi-role fire support helicopter built for the Bundeswehr (German Armed Forces). Under an agreement between the German government and Eurocopter made in March 2013, a total of 57 Tiger UHs are to be procured.

The UHT can carry PARS 3 LR "fire and forget" and/or HOT3 anti-tank missiles as well as 70 mm (2.8 in) Hydra 70 air-to-ground fire support rockets. Four AIM-92 Stinger missiles (2 on each side) are mounted for air-to-air combat. Unlike the HAP/HCP version it has no integrated gun turret, but a 12.7 mm (0.50 in) gunpod can be fitted if needed. The German Army decided against the French 30 mm (1.2 in) GIAT cannon used on other Tiger versions due to dissatisfation with the heavy recoil of this weapon. Another difference is the use of a mast-mounted sight, which has second-generation infrared and CCD TV cameras (range 18 km)."
