[edit] Regarding information on the article

"The missile is a development of Boeing's AGM-114 Hellfire and is designed to meet the RAF's requirement for a long range anti-armour weapon"

I thought that the AGM-114 Hellfire was a Lockheed Martin designed and built weapon, not a Boeing weapon. Can someone backup this statement or if it cannot be verified, be removed or edited? Thanks. ThePointblank 01:20, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Brimstone is based on the original Hellfire missile, a Boeing product. LM are responsible for Hellfire II.

[edit] better pic?

Isn't there a better pic, even if its a static mock-up at an airshow?

Would be nice to have a pic of three on the triple rail launcher system. Bumper12 02:18, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] change infobox?

Um, maybe we should change the infobox from ((weapon-missile)) to ((Infobox_Missile))? virtually all the other missiles are using this. Cheers. Bumper12 (talk) 22:58, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
