Yes Pac Rotors is right,
22 Tigers, and delivery for 2003 or 2004 not certain, also maintenance and some assembly in Brisbane and at Oakey.

I must say its great for the Army to get some gear that is state of the art and quite practical. I just hope the 1 Billion Dollar deal will include the correct amount of flying hours to keep the pilots current, and correct engineering support to keep them operational.

For a change, there are some good helicopter buys for the defence force.

Great for the Industry and the Army crews
