How about a reference to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line-crossing_ceremony#Controversy? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.40.46.84 ( talk) 08:54, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
The later versions of the Shaddocks were anti-shipping missiles and were carried by Juliett class submarines and possibly tested on Whiskey class submarines - I'm not quite sure of the timing, but I'd suspect they predate the UGM-86 on the Oberons? In the depths of the Cold War, it might have been good propaganda, and Western sources might not have been aware of the capabilities of Soviet missiles, the Shaddocks were a source of particular confusion to NATO. Le Deluge ( talk) 10:12, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
Cleaning out my userspace...here are some sources that I've identified as potentially being of use for this article's development.

The opening section of this article makes a number of points, none of which are sourced. Even if later in the article the sources are present when mention occurs again, they should be added to this opening section too. Antarctic-adventurer (talk) 05:36, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
Article currently [1] reads in part The aft tubes fired Mark 20 anti-submarine torpedoes and gives a reference, but not an online one so I can't easily check it. But http://www.hazegray.org/navhist/canada/postwar/oberon/ says the aft tubes of the Canadian Oberons fired Northrop Mk.37 Mod 0 torpedoes, which seems far more likely... the Mk37mod0 described in Mark 37 torpedo would have been short enough... just... for the aft tubes, the Mk20, no. Unless it's a different Mk20? Andrewa ( talk) 04:55, 9 July 2013 (UTC)
