Tiger UHT or Tiger HAD?
Asking all the Heli bois.

Is there a distinct winner between the two? I want to start grinding for one of them.

On the one hand, I really like the idea of playing the terrain with the UHT's rotor mounted sight system. On the other hand, I also really like the idea of the 30mm on the snout of the HAD. Does one of these features make one better than the other? Is the rotor mounted sight system really useful in a game like WT? Does one have a better selection of weapon systems? Is the 30mm even useful in 10.3?

And how is the grind for each of them? Does one tech tree (German or French) have a better selection of helicopters in general than the other?

I am really torn because I think normally the lack of the 30mm would rule the UHT out for me, but its the german version of the Tiger and I have a slight personal bias towards germany that makes me really want to play it too and I cant choose ahfksd.

help me make decision ples :winter2019neutralyul:

Thanks for the help in advance ^^

The German Tiger is probably the best heli in the game right now, rival of the Ka-50 with the changes to the PARS missiles being radar-lock based.

The 30mm is basically irrelevant. Doesn't really make much of a difference unless you're farming ground targets in heli EC.

The other Tigers have HOT missiles which are basically garbage at this point for their BR's so they're not worth grinding for...

But the German grind for helis is absolutely atrocious, not dissimilar to the British grind. As someone who grinded out the British apache all I have to say is good luck. ;)

The 30mm is missing its API shell though
