The main reason I changed from Conventional/Nuclear to Unknown is that unless I am missing something, there has been no USDoD announcement. "Unnamed sources" are acceptable to use to say that it potentially is. But I feel it's taking too much to explicitly state it that way. Especially when one of the sources doubting it also lists another situation recently where "Unnamed sources" took a Chinese metaphor literally and assumed there was water instead of rocket fuel etc.
When the wiki article is claiming that it's a mix of nuclear and conventional, which could easily be a translation error or mistake, mistaking nuclear for AIP which would be far more likely, as Nuclear and conventional seems unusual. We need more than "unnamed sources" and "Pentagon Officials".
