Delete submarines have had vertical launch systems since the first SSBNs. This is WP:OR/WP:SYNTH. Also Youtube, which seems to be the inspiration for this page is not WP:RS. Mztourist (talk) 08:08, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete yes looks made up, do any RS define this as a separate type of submarine? Slatersteven (talk) 14:54, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - per Mztourist. And attack submarines have had VLS since at least as far back as the 1970s. Parsecboy (talk) 15:42, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and Snow per all the above; this is a clear POV fork not supported by RS. ⇒SWATJester ^{Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat!} 16:06, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per pretty much everyone else. Useless article. Intothat darkness 16:09, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete What is described is a modern attack submarine, this is some fabricated distinction. Moreover, if anything, Los Angeles-class were the first VLS attack subs, which the article does not mention. Mdewman6 (talk) 21:09, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - this appears to be a content fork of cruise missile submarine, which places an emphasis on the means of launching the ship's armament that isn't really in reliable sources.Nigel Ish (talk) 22:24, 11 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
SNOW Delete - not much more that can be added to what has already been said... - \\'cԼF 20:21, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per above, a poor neologism and OR ridden material. Shakakarta (talk) 21:49, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
