 * ... that the cargo ship MV Delta Mariner (pictured), which struck a bridge over the Tennessee River in January 2012, is used as an alternative to Russian transport aircraft for transporting U.S. Air Force rockets?


 * Symbol question.svg Age, length OK. Well-referenced. The hook fact about striking the bridge is verified. However, the second hook fact is written in the present tense in the hook but in the past tense in the article. Could you clarify this, please?
 * Also, I found the hook a little difficult to follow ("alternative to Russian transport aircraft for transporting"). Would you consider an alt?
 * ALT1: ... that the cargo ship MV Delta Mariner (pictured), which struck a bridge over the Tennessee River in January 2012, transports rocket parts from the manufacturer in Alabama to Cape Canaveral? Yoninah (talk) 22:47, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
 * The original hook is a little awkward now that I look at it. ALT1 is fine. :) - The Bushranger One ping only 23:22, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Thanks. Hook refs verified. ALT1 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 23:29, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
