Spain has approved its participation on the Tiger Mk III upgrade, to be conducted alongside partners France and Germany.
The Spanish Council of Ministers gave its consent on 21 December, agreeing EUR1.2 billion (USD 2.03 billion) in financing from 2029 to 2037.
Once all the nations have given their approval via the Organisation for Joint Armament Co-operation (OCCAR), a contract is likely to be awarded to Airbus Helicopters in early 2022.
The major system upgrades for the Mk III programme include improvements to the mast-mounted electro-optical system; the helmet-mounted sight system; the enhanced vision system; radios; datalinks for manned-unmanned teaming; new air-to-surface and air-to-air missiles, guns, and rockets; improved countermeasures; a new navigation system synchronised to the Galileo global positioning system; and an updated avionics suite that includes a new tactical data management system and battlefield management system.
