There is no confirmation on the alleged failure of the Aug. 7 test. The sources from South China Morning Post, where ru is quoting from, are "two sources close to the military". So unnamed sources are now credible? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 61.62.189.174 (talk) 09:49, 27 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Is Free Beacon's claim accurate? IIRC Russia is still trying to make Yu-71 work. China would be 1st or 2nd depending on whether you count the HTV-2's incomplete flights. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.183.131.140 (talk) 12:03, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"Sources close to the military" is a journalistic and literary device to mean "the military"; yet the sources are highly placed enough to be thought knowledgeable, and who wish to remain unnamed. US intelligence does not confirm topics of interest to them. It is probably better to name the reporter in the citation. Nice try though. --Ancheta Wis (talk | contribs)12:31, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
