[edit] Questionable Redirect

why does "Simbad" redirect here? arctic 03:55, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

Simbad is a name for a twin Mistral launcher. Why it is disturbing ? Rama 06:40, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] for your info...

as is usual for the european arms, the italian article has very interesting infos.

It says the mistral missile was fired 2000 times with a success of 95 percent. That is only true if the missile actually shot down 1900 target drones/aircraft. I doubt this is the case. Was this missile actually used in combat? It's a good article but will be of tremendously increased value if someone researches this missile and explains its success and failurs in combat, rather than just dropping in a number like 95% hit rate. No offence -- its a good article but leaves lots of unanswered question.
