MBDA is a European missile company, headquartered at Le Plessis-Robinson near Paris, that designs and builds guided missiles and related weapon systems. It was founded in December 2001 when three missile businesses merged: Aérospatiale Matra Missiles of France, Matra BAe Dynamics of France and the United Kingdom, and the missile division of Alenia Marconi Systems. Its three parent companies are Airbus, BAE Systems and Leonardo. The group has kept national divisions in France, the United Kingdom and Italy, added German and Spanish divisions after 2006, and runs a United States subsidiary. Its range covers air-to-air, surface-to-air, air-to-surface, anti-ship and anti-tank weapons, among them Meteor, ASRAAM, Mistral, Exocet, Storm Shadow and Brimstone, and it also carries on the line of British missiles that British Aerospace built, such as the Sea Eagle.
