 * Symbol question.svg Article length good, hook length good. Expansion start date and factor (more like 100x) verified.  Hook fact book source can be accepted; hook interest is only okay, but offhand I don't see a better one.  Neutrality okay, seems copyvio free.  But "Kudriatsev" versus "Kudriavtsev" in the article text – which is the right spelling and does the hook have the right one?  Also note there is a busted "convert" template showing in the text (third sentence of "Armament").  These should be fixed before it goes up on the main page.
