Old talk

[edit]

This is my first time here, so apologies if I get this wrong! However, I was recently reading an article on the National Geographic site ([1]) which states that far from being scrapped before completion, K-123 was in service and indeed suffered a serious reactor incident.

Info Conflict

[edit]

The information on the page conflicts with Wikipedia page "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfa_class_submarine" regarding entry K-64 commissioning/decommissioning dates. I don't know which dates are correct, but the two do not agree. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.84.74.138 (talk) 00:55, 29 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This appears to have been addressed. --Sparks1911 (talk) 02:37, 3 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect info in infobox

[edit]

"Class" is not "attack submarine" but "ballistic missile submarine". Submerged top speed is very unlikely to be in the 45knot range as that is the record for fastest submarine ever built and is held by the prototype "Papa" class. 30-35knots would be considered very fast for a submarine of this size/class. I can't figure out how to update the page, the "infobox" material in the edit page does not seem to correlate to what is displayed...

    • update**

On closer inspection, the infobox displayed is the entire infobox for the alfa class, somehow the wrong one has been inserted here. I do not know how to correct this.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.175.244.252 (talk) 13:56, 23 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Superheated metal

[edit]

"The superheated metal solidified" - In power plant technology, superheated steam means steam beyond the temperature of saturated steam. If in the Alfa case, we talk about liquid metal as coolant, superheated coolant would imply something beyond the boiling temperature. This is surely not the case, therefore: can we get rid of the term "superheated". It was just liquid metal that got solid, wasn't it? --Gunnar (talk) 20:00, 6 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
