At the June 2018 Eurosatory exhibition in France, MBDA began promoting a new missile program to equip French and German Tiger attack helicopters at some point in the future. They currently use the Hellfire (France) and PARS 3 LR (Germany). On 13 July 2017, the Franco-German Council of Ministers signed a declaration initiating the new EMM (European Modular Missile) air-to-surface missile for the Tiger attack helicopter. The new missile is expected to be in the Hellfire weight and range class, merging technologies from the French MMP/MHT program and the PARS 3 LR (formerly TriGAT-LR). Both programs are conducted by MBDA which is expected to undertake the development once funding emerges.
