Lockheed Martin's Hellfire missile chosen by France

Lockheed Martin has announced that its Hellfire II missile system has been selected by France for its Tiger attack helicopter fleet.

The French army is placing the weapons system in 40 of the helicopters and that is expected to be completed by 2012. No value for the deal was disclosed.

Eurocopter, under contract with the multi-national European Organisation for Joint Armament Cooperation, has already begun integration of HELLFIRE II on the HAD Tiger at its facility in Marignane, France, with Lockheed Martin's support. Ground tests are scheduled for October 2007, with flight tests beginning in March 2008.

They have already integrated the Hellfire onto the Aussie Tiger so it shouldn't be too hard.  Don't know whether it's Hellfire I or II though........
