ADF Tiger upgrade

This is the, "you wouldn't want to use an old computer to do that would you?" effort. And so on.

Airbus Helicopters is looking at developing a new version its Tiger attack helicopter, known as the Tiger Mk3.

On 31 July, the Organisation for Joint Armament Cooperation (OCCAR) signed on behalf of France, Germany and Spain a contract with Airbus Helicopters TIGER for an Architecture Study with the aim to define the so-called “Tiger Mk3” - the future configurations materialising the Mid-Life Upgrade (MLU) of the TIGER (EC665) weapon system.

The Tiger history in Australia has never gotten above awful. Cost per flying hour? Above $30,000.

So, let us throw good money after bad.

Again.
