mention in The Hunt for Red October

edit

Tom Clancy's The Hunt for Red October repeatedly mentions this missile by its NATO reporting name (sorta) but persists in referring to it as a "Seahawk." Example quote: "The Red October carried twenty-six SS-N-20 Seahawk missiles, each with eight 500-kiloton multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles—MIRVs—enough to destroy two hundred cities." (p. 12) This might be an interesting addition to the article (assuming that it is sufficiently notable) although it would be worth it to seek expert testimony or, better yet, some reliable sources (a book review, perhaps? one written by a naval officer?) that deals with this subject and especially the missile's name (artistic license or just a Clancy goof?). Throwing it out there, might come back to this later. RexSueciae (talk) 20:47, 24 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
