[edit] Start
the original article appeared to be a copy/paste to or from here. It is entirely possible that the howstuffworks article in question was copied from wikipedia, but this age of the howstuffworks page points to THEM being at fault. Either way, I modified the article so that it isn't a question. Protonk (talk) 00:07, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Sources
[edit] Running Critical
The source I have added is a book called running critical. I think it is authoritative, and the talk page on the 688-class submarine article has some comments I've made to substantiate it. I would be MUCH happier if I had other sources at hand, but I don't. Protonk (talk) 00:07, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Shkval and German Torpedo
Sources out there exist, and I might find them, but whoever posted the German source might come back and do some translation for us. Protonk (talk) 00:07, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Nonsense
There seem to be some people who believe that the government is engaging in some conspiracy to hide the REAL speed of submarines from the public, that the REAL speed is something like 70mph or higher. Every reliable, verifiable source says otherwise. Please don't add supposition, conjecture or theory on this page or any other page regarding submarine speed.
