R-29RMU2 Liner
[edit]... that, with its high payload-mass ratio, the Russian R-29RMU2 Layner outclasses every submarine-launched ballistic missile in the world?

Article size and date check out, CP/CV looks OK. Concerned a bit about the hook though; it seems somewhat esoteric and also has a slight air of peacock phrasing, especially since it is a Russian source cited (of course they'd say that, we would too if it was our missile...). Would this be an acceptable alt?
- ALT1: ...that the Russian R-29RMU2 Layner submarine-launched ballistic missile is claimed to be the the best missile of its type in the world?
- In addition, as you have more than five DYK credits, you need to review another article per the QPQ criteria. - The Bushranger One ping only 21:30, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
- I've reviewed Heinz Kiwitz, and yes, the alternative hook is better. If the word Layner is italicised in the hook, should the article's title and every occurrence of the word in the article be italicised as well? --Sp33dyphil ©hatontributions 07:02, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
Good to go; AGF on Russian language sources. (And, I believe that technically, yes, all uses of the name should be italiced as it's a Russian word in an English language work.) - The Bushranger One ping only 10:28, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
