FSX EC-505 Tiger HAP Demo Version. Tiger HAP is an air-to-air combat
and fire support medium-weight (6 tonnes) helicopter fitted with two MTR
390 engines. It is daytime and night combat capable and is operable in
NBC environments. Three basic parameters were taken into account right
from the start of the development phase: low (visual, radar and infrared)
detectability, which provides excellent survivability on the battlefield,
maximum efficiency of the weapons and the associated fire control
systems without heavier workload for the crew, and an optimized logistic
concept offering minimum possession costs. The Tiger HAP is fitted with
a 30-mm gun turret, 68-mm submunition rokets, and air-to-air Mistral
missiles. It also features a firing sight with three sensors: infrared,
TV camera and direct optical channel. The complete avionics suite
includes multi-purpose color displays and radar/laser warning receivers.
