The Tiger Prototype 1 (PT1), first flew on 29 April 1991 and by December 1994 all four prototypes were airborne.
This new generation attack helicopter has been developed jointly by Eurocopter France (Aerospatiale) and Eurocopter Deutschland (MBB). The Tiger is being built in three variants, the PAH-2, HAC and HAP versions to undertake the anti-tank, close support and fighter helicopter roles. The Tiger will form the backbone of the German Heeresflieger anti-tank helicopter fleet (PAH-2) and the French ALAT fleet, undertaking both the antitank (HAC-3) and combat support role (HAP).
