Tiger Eurocopter Vs Turkish T129 ATAK - Which Is More Powerful

The Eurocopter (now Airbus Helicopters) Tiger is a four-bladed, twin-engined attack helicopter which first entered service in 2003. It is manufactured by Eurocopter (now Airbus Helicopters), the successor company to Aérospatiale's and DASA's respective helicopter divisions, which designate it as the EC665. Following their languages, in Germany it is known as the Tiger; in France and Spain it is called the Tigre.

Development of the Tiger started during the Cold War, and it was initially intended as an anti-tank helicopter platform to be used against a Soviet ground invasion of Western Europe. During its prolonged development period the Soviet Union collapsed, but France and Germany chose to proceed with the Tiger, developing it instead as a multirole attack helicopter. It achieved operational readiness in 2008.

The Tiger has the distinction of being the first all-composite helicopter developed in Europe; even the earliest models also incorporate other advanced features such as a glass cockpit, stealth technology, and high agility to increase its survivability. Improved variants have since entered service, outfitted with more powerful engines and compatible with a wider range of weapons. Since the type's introduction to service, Tigers have been used in combat in Afghanistan, Libya, and Mali.

The TAI/AgustaWestland T129 ATAK is a twin-engine, tandem seat, multi-role, all-weather attack helicopter based on the Agusta A129 Mangusta platform. The T129 was developed by Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) with partner AgustaWestland. The helicopter is designed for advanced attack and reconnaissance missions in hot and high environments and rough geography in both day and night conditions.

The ATAK programme was begun to meet the Turkish Armed Forces' requirements for an attack and tactical reconnaissance helicopter. The T129 is the result of the integration of Turkish developed high-tech avionics, air-frame modifications, and weapon systems onto the combat proven AgustaWestland A129 airframe, with upgraded engines, transmission and rotor blades. It is in use by the Turkish Army, and is being offered to other services.

It is nonsense to talk about it.
There are three points to keep in mind that are thrown together in such videos.
1. Technick
2. Strategy
3. Who flies (pilot).

A helicopter is a helicoter!
Guns, range are strategy
Radar, targeting computers and how to use them are tech.
Pilot status and how good he is, is who flies.

Tech tables don't help either.

il Tiger è un elicottero che non può competere con il T 129 sia nella manovrabilità sia nella maneggevolezza che nell'affidabilità a 360 gradi. Si porta dietro problemi fin dalla sua nascita. La Germania l'ha voluto senza cannone e con sistemi di acquisizione obiettivo diversi e questo è uno dei problemi iniziali di progetto che ancora pagano. Se parliamo di armamento e di auto protezione l'A129 Mangusta da cui proviene il T 129 non ha pari nella classe leggera degli elicotteri d'attacco.

These helicopters have a class difference between them, the eurocopter tiger heavy class attack helicopter and the t129 attack light class attack and reconnaissance helicopter.(But t 129 is better)
