This was AFDed in 2006 with several "weak keep" votes. This is still unreferenced and an orphan. Wikipedia is a global encyclopedia, not every programme in the US DoD is WP:NOTABLE. DexDor (talk) 22:02, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete. This article is alarmingly lacking in references,. As such it's in the category of "madey-up stuff". Tonywalton Talk 00:40, 25 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep and move to Family of Integrated Rapid Response Equipment. This book and several others describe the program. Here's an abstract of a technical journal article about FIRRE. It should not be "alarming" that references are lacking from an article when a Google search shows plenty of references. Simply add the sources and the basis for alarm evaporates. This is not made up. Not every US military program is notable, but many are, as are many of the military programs of other countries as well.

 * Keep Let's not reopen AfDs where only the nom wanted the article deleted. We don't delete articles because they're in bad shape or because no one is actively working on them. ~KvnG 21:25, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep per sources by Cullen. Passes WP:GNG, AfD is not cleanup. -- cyclopia speak! 15:34, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
