Policy compliance:

Hook eligibility:

  • Cited:   - n
  • Interesting:  
QPQ: Done.

Overall:   Three citations needed. Source cited for hook does not support hook; it refers to 11 rockets, type unspecified, and makes no mention of this being well known incident. Georgejdorner (talk) 02:00, 26 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Georgejdorner: If being covered by the BBC, with many contemporary news articles/television segments and being the subject of a number of retrospectives decades later is not "well-known", well, what is then? Maury Markowitz (talk) 15:30, 27 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
