Diehl BGT Defence and EADS are offering Germany's Hope and Hosbo glide weapons to potential buyers, including as part of a proposed Eurofighter Typhoon package for the Indian air force. Previously released from a Panavia Tornado during successful flight trials with Germany's WTD 91 test centre, the air-to-surface weapons were the subject of loading trials at EADS's Manching site near Munich in April. The company is heading the Eurofighter consortium's campaign for India's medium multirole combat aircraft contest, which seeks 126 fighters.
