19??-project
SA 3164 Alouette Canon,
built in a single example, as a moderate modification of a satandard SA.316, armed with
up to four SS 11 and a bow mounted 20mm gun. The anglo-french cooperation
Aerospatiale and Westland brought several projects for armed versions, which
were intended for use for the french army. The first layout was an armed
version of the Lynx, proposed by Westland in 1964, which wasn't favoured in
France. Instead, a cockpit with side-by-side seating was adopted, although
later designs featured a tandem cockpit as well.
