French Tigre HAC
 

Seems (from Air&Cosmos printed edition) that the french army, after conducting test with Spike (for the Spanish Army) and the Hellfire (for the Australian Army), has choosen to quit the Trigat program and to adopt the Hellfire missile for its Tigre helo. I was not able to find internet sources, but it should come rapidly...

Now, there a lot of sources: the best one maybe:

"The Government of France has selected Lockheed Martin’s [NYSE: LMT]HELLFIRE II® missile system to equip its Hélicoptère d'Appui Destruction (HAD) Tiger attack helicopter fleet. The precision-strike missiles will be purchased under a foreign military sale for the French Army, which is fielding 40 HAD Tiger helicopters. The fielding is expected to be completed by 2012."

from Lockeed-martin, the manufacturer:
