Can we have photos of individual aircraft which were built in Brazil? All the photos which I removed were of airframes built in France or Germany. This seems silly. This would be like showing pictures of VWs made in Germany on the VW Brazil page, with no images of VWs that were actually produced in Brazil. - BillCJ ( talk) 22:10, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
It is stated in this article that Helibras is the manufacturer of the NH90 helicopter. This simply isn't the case. Unless someone can provide a reference for this wild claim, I will remove it in 24 hours. In the meantime I have placed a "citation needed" on the claim.

Right, I see what's happened here, someone thinks that because Helibras is a subsidiary of Eurocopter it therefor manufactures all of Eurocopter's models. Again, this isn't the case. For a start, the Tiger is not manufactured in Brasil. Again, if Brasil launched a requirement for an attack helicopter, I am prepared to concede that Eurocopter would propose the Tiger and that it would probably be built by Helibras - but this isn't the case right now. Therefor I am going to edit the "products" list in this article to only include types built in Brazil. If anyone thinks I have made a mistake, please post a follow-up here.

I've had a look at the history page for this article and it seems that there's a trend of people making changes to the "products" section and then other users reverting those changes. I suspect there's an issue over the types that are actually constructed in Brazil and the types simply marketed by Helibras, the resulting orders being filled from the European assembly lines. If anyone has any thoughts on this then please add a comment below.
