Tiger
Notes: There are three planned versions of the Tiger. The three versions differ primarily in the avionics and the weapons mix normally carried. The HAP is the close support variant; it has a chin turret with an autocannon and hardpoints for rockets and missiles. It also has the most comprehensive avionics and sighting mix. The HAC is a dedicated antitank variant; it has no chin turret and is normally armed only with missiles; it cannot use gun pods. The UHT can be fitted with gun pods or just about anything else you could mount on a helicopter; it is a general support helicopter. The Tiger has no ejection seats and is not capable of aerial refueling.
Twilight 2000 Notes: This attack helicopter had just began to replace the Gazelle in French service and the BO-105 in German service at the time of the Twilight War, and few made into service (perhaps 40 between the two countries). The choice of these helicopters by both Germany and France led to some interesting matchups along the Franco-German border during the French occupation of the Rhineland, with Tigers fighting each other and pilot quality being the deciding factor in these contests.
