T66 Article?

Should the T66 get it's own article? Looks like one was made before, but now redirects to the rocket. If there's just not enough info for the various launchers, maybe make sections for each on the M16 page? Tengu99 (talk) 00:58, 19 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest making the sections to start. If they're well sourced and begin to dominate the article, then they can be split off as necessary. BilCat (talk) 01:12, 19 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I added the launchers section, but I'm not sure that it really adds anything to the article. I keep seeing bits and pieces about tank mounted launchers, but no definitive statements about them such as proper designation. Doesn't help that there were several designs in different configurations, several of which seem to be field modifications, and also using the M8 rocket. Unless someone can dig up more info it might be better just to add the military pamphlets and journal article to the references in the appropriate spots and wipe the launcher section?Tengu99 (talk) 16:20, 19 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
