	Army Technology - Trigat LR - Anti-Armour Missile
		TRIGAT is a European programme involving France, Germany and the United Kingdom.
		The TRIGAT LR missile is being developed by the Euromissile Dynamics Group, a consortium of which the members are the EADS company (formerly Aerospatiale-Matra of France and DaimlerChrysler Aerospace of Germany) and MBDA (formerly Matra BAe Dynamics of UK).
		TRIGAT LR is an autonomous fire and forget missile, unlike the medium range version in which the laser beam has to be directed onto the target until impact.

		Met de Trigat kan een soldaat te velde de richting van een raket nog beïnvloeden nadat hij is afgevuurd.
		De Trigat is deel van het voornemen in 'Europa' een defensie-industrie te vestigen die kan concurreren met de Amerikaanse.
		De Trigat is overigens geïnspireerd op het soort vredesoperaties buiten het Navo-gebied, waar Nederland het wapen voor nodig heeft, en waarmee de Britten en de Fransen veel meer ervaring hebben.

		Originally a collaborative programme between France, the UK and Germany with Belgium and the Netherlands as associate nations, Trigat was to replace the ubiquitous Milan system.
		In terms of improvements, Trigat thrust-vectored missile guidance is by means of a scanning laser-beam system, providing increased resistance to countermeasures and obviating the need for wire controls.
		However, Trigat has been fraught with difficulties, not least the changed strategic environment since the operational requirement for the weapon was written in 1982.

	TRIGAT Missile Trials
		Testing of the TRIGAT Medium Range anti-armour missile was undertaken at Woomera between January and February 1998.
		The trials were sponsored by the UK Ministry of Defence, and were designed to test the performance of the missile under ‘hot-dry’ conditions.
		The WPA was selected for the TRIGAT program in view of the optimum climatic conditions, purpose-built range facilities, available technical and infrastructure support, and safety and security considerations.

		A first launch was successfully made against a moving Leopard tank, while the second was performed as a direct approach from the firing post to the target in a low-angle trajectory.
		Proving TriGAT LR's superiority against decoys and jammers, the launches were made from a ground vehicle against a static target some 4.3 km away, and only 10 meters from a decoy.
		TriGAT development will be incorporated into the production of the Tiger, for which the investment and series production contract was signed in June 1999.

	EU Referendum - View topic - Simply absurd
		Trigat LR was never seriously considered to arm the Apache, we were always going to go with the Longbow/hellfire combination.
		Trigat LR was to replace the Swingfire missiles.
		As it is, the Meteor, which was supposed to be delivered in 2005, is not due now until 2012, so in the meantime we have had to buy Raytheon missiles from the US as a stop-gap.

	EU Referendum
		Recently, I published piece under the title "the price of collaboration", pointing out that the UK government's participation in the abortive "Trigat" European anti-tank missile projects had cost us £314 million before we abandoned them and bought off-the-shelf US missiles.
		As always though, this has turned out to be the tip of the iceberg and, with further research, it looks like the "Europeanisation" of our defence policy has so far cost us over £1 billion and looks set to cost us many billions more.
		Within the framework of FCS, the US went on to develop the vehicle, known as the Sika combat vehicle, while we went on to buy the Pather which, supposedly does the same job.

	Global Defence Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The official way ahead for the future medium range anti-tank weapon requirement thus became: "Most of the Army's infantry units will be equipped with MR TRIGAT capable of defeating hostile armour at a maximum range of two to four kilometres at night and in bad weather.
		Announcing the decision to withdraw from the MR TRIGAT project, the Defence Secretary said:" we will take the opportunity to reassess our wider needs for the mechanised and armoured infantry which MR TRIGAT was to equip".
		Not only had the Netherlands been a MR TRIGAT collaborative partner with the UK but the two countries had well established areas of common interest through the close ties of their Marines.

		Alexander Bonde, author of the March 8 paper, said he is against Germany joining the nearly 1 billion euro ($1.3 billion) development phase of MEADS and wants a redefinition of the missile industry that would include the cancellation of Trigat, a 900-missile program expected to cost around 500 million euros.
		The Defense Ministry is negotiating with Spain to jointly produce Trigat.
		A senior Spanish Ministry of Defense official said March 7 he was not sure whether the cooperation declaration drafted at the Leon summit could be implemented in its entirety.

	Defence procurement: certain projects and accounting for inflation: tenth report from the Defence Committee
		The Committee is disturbed that nobody has inquired about the causes of the project overrun for the Vehicle Launched Scattterable Mine System and hopes the procurement of the third system, MINX, will not suffer similar problems.
		TRIGAT is an anti-tank guided weapon system developed in conjunction with France and Germany and has taken seven years to proceed from the feasibility study to full development stage.
		Changes in world security made it questionable whether the long range version of TRIGAT was still necessary, but contractual details make it cheaper to continue with the programme than to withdraw from it.

	Review of Remotely Controlled Weapon Stations at the 2006 Eurosatory Exhibition
		The German Tiger was designed as an integrated weapon system, optimized as a tank killer and able to rapidly engage multiple tanks at a range of 6 kilometers from safe, concealed positions.
		To provide these capabilities the helicopter was equipped with a mast-mounted sight and eight PARS-3 (Trigat LR) missiles, which were originally being considered both by Germany and France.
		However, since France withdrew from the TRIGAT program, the Germans also reconsidered their choice and began to look for alternatives.

	Trigat: 21 May 2002: Written answers (TheyWorkForYou.com)
		To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what off-the-shelf options are being evaluated to replace the Medium Range Trigat; how much they cost; and if he will make a statement.
		Two off-the-shelf medium range anti- tank guided weapon systems are being evaluated to replace the capability which Medium Range Trigat was expected to deliver for use by Light Forces and Mechanised Infantry: Javelin offered by a joint venture between Raytheon and Lockheed Martin and supported by the US Government; and Spike offered by MBDA.
		As part of the evaluation the Ministry of Defence is conducting a commercial competition between the two equipments, and as such I am withholding details of the costs in accordance with Exemption 13 of the Code of Practice on Access to Government Information.

		Though you could fly the Apache variants in just about every helicopter sim out there, the Eurocopter Tigre was a nice change of pace.
		It's interesting to get a chance to use the wire-guided Hot3 and infrared Trigat missiles from the gunner’s position in the Tigre.
		The Trigat infrared missile is a god-send relative to the radar-guided hellfire with it's "fire-and-forget" abilities.

		Die Trigat LR wird mittels bildgebenden Infrarotbild gelenkt.
		In der Genauigkeit steht das bildgebende IR-Verfahren der Lasermarkierung in Nichts nach und da die Flugsteuerung der Trigat teils 20 Jahre jünger ist, als die der Hellfire, würde ich sagen, ist das Gesamtprodukt besser, egal welche Art von Ziel...
		Aber ein Ziel treffen (egal welches!) könne Waffensysteme beide Gattungen sehr genau, die Trigat aber marginal besser...

	Free Lebanon - Finns buy Israeli missile tested on Lebanese civilians
		The missile, which was sold to the Singaporean Army more than a year ago, is considered one of the leading weapons of its kind in the world, in direct competition with the US Javelin and two systems developed by Euromissile: the TRIGAT medium-range missile and the Milan 3.
		But the Spike and the NT-Dandy have a less auspicious reputation among the Lebanese, where the battlefields of the South allowed the Israeli Army to test the missiles with impunity.
		But the UK has indicated it is seeking a lighter anti-tank weapon for its rapid-reaction forces.

		The version for the German Army is the UHT anti-tank model equipped with a mast-mounted sight with infrared and TV cameras that allow the helicopter to scout and search for targets while hiding behind terrain.
		The Tiger UHT carries an armament of Trigat or HOT-3 missiles for anti-tank missions as well as unguided rockets or Stinger air-to-air missiles.
		In its place, France has instead ordered a multi-role model called the HAD equipped with the gun turret of the HAP and the Trigat anti-tank missile.

		Its going to have all kinds of natty capabilities including predictive software which will allow it to fly within range of the target before its active guidance is used for the terminal attack.
		Like the Trigat LR it will also have software that will prevent two missiles from attacking the same target.
		An artists illustration of FRES carrying fifteen of these missiles in a pop up laucher (think Swingfire on a bigger scale) was shown.

		EFP-T-TA Trigat LR Notes: This is a longer-ranged, heavier warhead version of the Trigat MR, primarily used as helicopter armament, but also fired from mast-mounted launchers on vehicles such as the Panther.
		HEAT-T-TA Trigat MR Notes: This weapon is a joint project of France, Germany, and Great Britain.
		In a pinch, the Trigat may be fired from Milan firing unit, but range is then limited to 2000 meters, and the Milan firing unit is not equipped with its own laser designator as the Trigat MR firing unit is.
