Flying submarine

Just a drawing board idea from World War II. Although I saw something about this on the History Channel once, it is non-encyclopedic. Should we have an article for every car which ever made it to the blue-print stage? Captain Jackson 18:54, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

• Keep If it was a flying submarine car, yes! Fascinating subject, I clicked one of the external links and it was an interesting read. --kingboyk 21:43, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

This machine was never actually built. It's just a blue-print idea from World War II without so much as a prototype built. Captain Jackson 22:05, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. If it were a prototype by an individual inventor, I don't think it would be notable. But since it seems like a design that was considered by a government during WW2, that seems good enough to me. (If I'm getting the facts wrong here, please correct me.) --Thunk 22:20, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
  • I'd agree with you, but I haven't seen this History Channel piece, and neither of the links on the article's page are about the vehicle proposed by the Soviet Union. I somewhat hesitant to keep this around unsourced. ×Meegs 00:49, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
