The '''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' can be outfitted with the following ordnance:

* 4 x RB 52 missiles

== Usage in battles ==

''Describe the tactics of playing in a helicopter, the features of using the helicopter in a team and advice on tactics.

If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).''

=== Pros and cons ===

''Summarise and briefly evaluate the vehicle in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark its pros and cons in the bulleted list. Try not to use more than 6 points for each of the characteristics. Avoid using categorical definitions such as "bad", "good" and the like - use substitutions with softer forms such as "inadequate" and "effective".''

* Small profile

'''Cons:'''

* No main gun
* Low engine power
* Fragile airframe

== Description ==

The '''{{Specs|name}}''' is a premium gift rank {{Specs|rank}} German utility helicopter {{Battle-rating}}. It was introduced as a [[wt:en/news/5824-development-bo-105-attack-helicopters-en|premium pack]] in [[Update 1.83 "Masters of the Sea"]] and was removed from sale after the [[wt:en/news/6542-shop-the-new-year-sale-en|2019 New Year sale]].

{{main|BGM-71C Improved TOW|FFAR Mighty Mouse|FN M3P (12.7 mm)}}

The '''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' can be outfitted with the following ordnance:

* 8 x BGM-71C Improved TOW missiles
* 60 x countermeasures + 2 x 12.7 mm FN M3P machine guns (500 rpg = 1,000 total)
* 60 x countermeasures + 2 x 12.7 mm FN M3P machine guns + 6 x FFAR Mighty Mouse rockets
* 30 x countermeasures + 1 x 12.7 mm FN M3P machine gun + 4 x BGM-71C Improved TOW missiles
* 30 x countermeasures + 1 x 12.7 mm FN M3P machine gun + 4 x BGM-71C Improved TOW missiles + 3 x FFAR Mighty Mouse rockets

== Usage in battles ==


The two main armaments that you will end up using are the 8 [[BGM-71 TOW|BGM-71]] TOWs and the 4 [[BGM-71 TOW|BGM-71]] TOWs with the FN F3P gun pod with the three FFAR Mighty Mouses. The first load out is used as an early game strike load out when there is a lack of enemy SPAA, helicopters, and planes. The second load out is used in the mid game and late game time frames when there are vehicles that can shoot you down.

When using the TOWs there are a couple of ways to play with them. The first is the standard hover behind a mountain or hill then fly up fire one or two missiles than reposition and repeat. Another way to play is similar to the [[SA.313B Alouette II (Germany)|SA.313B Alouette]] where you will put your collective between 50%-60% and angle down and as you fly over the battlefield you strike enemy tank, this strategy requires a bit of luck and knowledge of how the BGM-71 TOWs work.

Another way to play is to carry the two FN F3P gun pods with the six FFAR Mighty Mouses and use ground belts to strike lightly armoured vehicles such as the BMPs, [[Object 685]], [[Rooikat Mk.1D|Rooikat]], and [[HSTV-L]].

=== Pros and cons ===


'''Pros:'''

* Small fuselage that is harder to hit
* Very good manoeuvrability
* Highest ATGM count of the premium V era helicopters

'''Cons:'''

* Slower speed than most attack helicopters
