5) i. Germany: UH Tiger
The Bundeswehr’s UHT (Unterstützungshubschrauber Tiger) is a medium-weight multi-role fire support helicopter (German Armed Forces). The UHT can carry PARS 3 LR “fire and forget” and/or HOT3 anti-tank missiles, as well as Hydra 70 air-to-ground fire support rockets from Forges de Zeebrugge. Four AIM-92 Stinger missiles (two on each side) are mounted for air-to-air warfare. It does not have an integrated gun turret like the HAP/HCP model, although it may be fitted with a 12.7 mm (0.50 in) gun pod if necessary. The armament was designed to be multirole and quickly reconfigurable, allowing it to cover a wide range of mission scenarios while also being effective against a variety of targets.
