Eurocopter manufactures several types, for civil purposes and military as well
  
During an airshow at Dax France we were able to compare some types
 
The EC-145 of the 'Securite Civile' is in service for already a longer time
 
 Securite Civile ordered 32 helicopters for SAR
 
It's an ideal helicopter for hoisting and transporting victims of any kind. This simulates a job in a hurry  
 
The Tigre is a real attack helicopter, and more or less a concurrent of the Apache
 
The Tigre however is of a later generation as the Apache and more sophisticated
 
Various coutries united their knowledge and demands for this 'Super-Tigre'.
 
The French version: Tigre HAP/HCP, or 'Support and Escort or Multipurpose Combat Helicopter'
 
Finally we show the latest Cougar version, the 'Caracalle'.
   
This concerns a multi mission helicopter, it is used also for CSAR
 
CSAR is a dangerous job, picking up soldiers behind enemy lines, in hostal environment.
Ok, as the pilot shows, time to move on. This 'Dax-hound' is very contempt with his situation...

We show you our last two images, a firm EC-145 hoist, and a nice badge !
