		From the 1st to the 15th December 2005, MBDA carried out a flight trials campaign, under the direction of Dassault Aviation, of the full range of the the naval Rafale's weaponry from the French aircraft carrier, Charles de Gaulle.
		The trials were for the navalisation of the missile under the Rafale-M. The Exocet AM-39 (anti-ship and anti-surface missile) used was an instrumented missile of the Block 2 Mod 2 type.
		MBDA currently has 45 missile system and countermeasure programmes in operational service and has proven its ability as prime contractor to head major multi-national projects.

	MICA - meaning of word
		The word "mica" is thought to be derived from the Latin word ''micare'', meaning to shine, in reference to the brilliant appearance of this mineral (especially when in small scales).
		Until the 19th century, mica was quite rare and expensive as a result of the limited supply in Europe.
		But i frequently discover mica somewhere when hiking; i discovered it all over a parking lot in Wyoming in the 7th grade; i can't but imagine that it's been discovered and ''used'' over and over throughout human history, so it is irrelevant to the article in the absence of more context.

	Welcome to Dubai 2003: MBDA moves forward with missile updates (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Major European missile house MBDA, which has a substantial and long-standing involvement both in the United Arab Emirates and the wider region with a range of air-launched and other weapons, is looking forward to consolidating its position in the coming years as upgrade programs and new platform deliveries accelerate.
		Pre-series deliveries of the closely related Black Shaheen, ordered by the UAE government in 1998 and eventually to be fitted to all UAE Air Force Mirage 2000s, whether new -9s or -5s upgraded to the same standard, began this year and will continue during the course of 2004 to coordinate with the expected aircraft deliveries.
		The Brimstone currently has a specifically armor-related guidance algorithm but, according to an MBDA official, there is considerable interest in the region in the potential for a Brimstone version suitable for use against fast surface vessels in the Gulf.

		Todos os mísseis que a MB utiliza hoje são de fabricação da MBDA, que por sua vez é o resultado de uma joint venture entre a EADS, a Finmeccanica e a BAE.
		Como pode usar cabeças de guiamento diferentes, radar e infra-vermelho, o seu oponente pode saber que você tem o MICA, mas não sabe de que tipo, o que dificulta as contramedidas e/ou a evasão.
		Apenas como exemplo, a MBDA poderá eventualmente achar que a Imbel é interessante para produzir uma linha de mísseis, ou a nossa área de defesa eletrônica pode achar que a Imbel tem capacidade para nacionalizar alguns produtos para o mercado brasileiro.
