The "Anglo" in "Anglo-French" as used in this article refers to the UK not England, so I'm changing it accordingly -- Cabalamat 02:15, 29 Aug 2003 (UTC)

Then shouldn't it be UK-French? Anglo by its very nature implies England. RickK 02:17, 29 Aug 2003 (UTC)

According to http://acp.gn.apc.org/aerospace/aero_review.html, at least parts of Storm Shadow are built in Scotland. -- Cabalamat 02:46, 29 Aug 2003 (UTC)


Some clarification. Storm Shadow / Scalp is first and foremost a French weapon. It was entirely designed and developed in France and is based heavily on the Matra Apache weapon. Scalp/EG is a significantly enhanced Apache cruise missile designed to a French Air Force requirement. After government approval, it was then submitted for a UK cruise missile requirement (CASOM). The British contributed the BROACH warhead for their Storm Shadow missiles; the Scalp EG missile uses a French design. Most of the Storm Shadow missile are made in the UK--per contractual obligations (industrial offset).
