General information

For the French air force, the rapid obsolescence of their existing fleet of EC-665 Tiger HAP helicopters was becoming a serious problem; as a result, the decision was made to modernise the design to the HAD variant. However, their development did not end there: in 2014, a new modernisation was proposed under the designation Block 2, receiving a number of new capabilities including new software, the ability to use Spike-ER guided missiles from the Israeli company Rafael, as well as the ability to be operated from ships. France plans to upgrade all its Eurocopter Tiger helicopters to the HAD Block 2 version by 2025.

The EC-665 Tiger HAD Block 2 was introduced in Update "Kings of Battle". The new modification of the Tiger differs from the previous Tiger HAD only in the new Israeli Spike-ER air-to-surface guided missiles, which operate on a "fire and forget" principle with their own infrared seeker. Similarly to the German EC-665 Tiger UHT, these missiles allow you to deliver rapid strikes against enemy armoured vehicles while minimising the chance of being detected and destroyed by enemy SAM systems. To protect against aircraft, the Block 2 also has a set of Stinger or Mistral air-to-air missiles, and in case of emergency there is a nose-mounted 30 mm rapid-fire cannon.
