	ROBOTECH: RDF Multipurpose Missiles - Rapier (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		It was conceived in 2004 as a successor to the Hellfire and a complement to the Brimstone anti-armor missile.
		The Rapier B was used as an anti-air missile by the Spartan (the Tomahawk had dedicated anti-air missiles) and was also adopted by the RDF Navy as a point defense missile against incoming ship-killers.
		As such, it was mounted in numbers on the Daedalus and Prometheus classes, and, unexpectedly, on the Warspite class of submarines, where the Rapiers gave the missiles a defense against ASW helicopters and aircraft.

	Rapier - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		There are solid theoretical and practical connections between rapier and classical fencing that have been transmitted through the centuries, but much detail is missing, because the masters who supplied that detail, sword in hand and in the sala d’armi, are long dead.
		The rapier is the sword most often associated with duels of honor depicted in literature,e.g., the final scene in Hamlet, and films, such as The Three Musketeers — however, the fighting techniques in such films are usually far from authentic.
		The rapier is a weapon used by numerous characters in video games, either as their primary weapon, or simply as a buyable type of sword.
